            Bug ID: 363749
           Summary: kscreenlocker_greet will not accept password and
                    taking 4.9 GiB
           Product: kscreenlocker
           Version: 5.5.5
          Platform: Kubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: greeter
          Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
          Reporter: stillcompil...@gmail.com
                CC: bhus...@gmail.com, mgraess...@kde.org

After a weekend away, kscreenlocker_greet allows me to type my password, but
will not accept the correct password. switching to a console terminal, I notice
the process is taking 41% of the systme memory, which is about 4.92 GiB.

When I kill the kscreenlocker_greet process, another is spawned. This new
kcscreenlocker_greet process accepts the password and I am able to log in.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Leave for several days
2. Try to log in
3.

Actual Results:  
Unable to log in

Expected Results:  
Password accepted, process taking very little memory

The first time this happened, I changed my password, thinking that something
had happened. I would like to troubleshoot this more, but not sure how to
proceed. This has happened for three weeks now, and the process is still
running when I come back in to work. Is there a way to run ksceenlocker_greet
on valgrind or something?
