Hallo! Since the version 4.22 of xscreensaver, I cannot use any German character in my passwords any more eg. '§'. When I had changed my password to have just 127 ASCII chars I noticed xscreensaver crashes with any password and with it unlocks the screen. gdb suggest it has something to do with my pam: (gdb) run -sync -verbose -no-capture Starting program: /usr/local/bin/xscreensaver -sync -verbose -no-capture xscreensaver: 21:34:44: grabbing server... . . . xscreensaver: 21:34:44: 0: ungrabbing mouse (was 0x48). xscreensaver: 21:34:44: 0: grabbing mouse on 0x40000e...

I have an LFS here, and everywhere else pam is working nicely. Thanks Lynx _______________________________________________ Pam-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/pam-list
