Hi,
I seem to have encountered some sort of bug methinks. When I lock my machine  (Ctrl Alt L) - the screensaver kicks in, but when I try unlock with my password - computer says no..........
here's the /var/log/auth.log
Sep 16 10:11:02 baronne-laptop unix_chkpwd[6644]: check pass; user unknown
Sep 16 10:11:02 baronne-laptop unix_chkpwd[6644]: password check failed for user (baronne)
Sep 16 10:11:02 baronne-laptop gnome-screensaver-dialog: pam_unix(gnome-screensaver:auth): authentication failure; logname= uid=1000 euid=1000 tty=:0.0 ruser= rhost=  user=baronne

I've tried googling around but to no avail - seems like an old issue which I would have thought might be fine by now....
can anyone help?
cheers
baronne
