Which Keyboard-Layout do you use ? Maybe that's the trick...

Well, i use Germay Keyboard Layout, but when the Screen lock is coming up The "z" and "y" is swapped (qwertz vs. querty). Try logging in Using us-keyboard-Layout.

Just my 2 cents...

I have a Centos 4.4 system (unpatched) that lets me log in via tty/console, but when the Gnone screen lock kicks in, my password is unable to unlock. I am absolutely certain I an typing the correct password. I had to Alt-F1 to log in that way, issue a sudo reboot, then logged back in, enabled the screen lock, typed my password again, and it would not unlock.

What am I missing?

Thanks.
