Unlock session problem

[kaalen]

Hi!

Every time I close the lid on my laptop session gets locked. When I try to unlock it, it says something like "unlock unsuccessful". I tried this many times and am 100% that I type my password in correctly... I use the same password as for logging in off course. Should I use some different password or is this some sort of a bug?

Wow... that must be the first problem in linux I solved on my own.

I found some info here, it seems that this is trully a bug.

If anyone else has this problem, type

sudo chgrp shadow /etc/shadow

into the console and if you're lucky it will help you.
