I have the same kind of problem. Here's the output of xscreensaver in verbose mode: xscreensaver: ungrabbing server. xscreensaver: pam_start ("xscreensaver", "domi", ...) ==> 0 (Success) xscreensaver: pam_set_item (p, PAM_TTY, ":0.0") ==> 0 (Success) xscreensaver: PAM ECHO_OFF("Password: ") ==> password xscreensaver: pam_authenticate (...) ==> 7 (Authentication failure) xscreensaver: pam_set_item(p, PAM_USER, "root") ==> 0 (Success) xscreensaver: PAM ECHO_OFF("Password: ") ==> password xscreensaver: pam_authenticate (...) ==> 7 (Authentication failure) xscreensaver: pam_end (...) ==> 0 (Success) xscreensaver: password incorrect! And here's the auth.log: Oct 15 08:51:49 komarr xscreensaver(pam_unix)[20893]: authentication failure; logname= uid=1234 euid=1234 tty=:0.0 ruser= rhost= user=domi Oct 15 08:51:52 komarr xscreensaver(pam_unix)[20893]: authentication failure; logname= uid=1234 euid=1234 tty=:0.0 ruser= rhost= user=root Oct 15 08:51:53 komarr xscreensaver[20893]: FAILED LOGIN 2 ON DISPLAY ":0.0", FOR "domi" Looks like the problem comes from the pam_authenticate function.
