Description Nicolas Salguero 2014-10-02 10:40:53 CEST 
Hi,

Currently, xscreensaver cannot unlock even if entered password is correct because of rights problem on /etc/shadow: this file belongs to group root and is "chmod 0000"; when doing "chgrp shadow" and "chmod 440", the problem is solved.

Best regards.

Nico.
