Package: gnome-screensaver
Version: 2.20.0-2
Severity: critical
OK.I found that libpam-foreground v0.4-1 if installed fixes this unlock
issue and the user password works!also I got this dependency after
checking through ubuntu gutsy 7.10 which also I am using.Hope developers
will fix this bug ASAP.below is the relative contents on
/var/log/auth.log
