I should wrote this a long long time ago. As I remember, when I was
using KDE on RA, after locking desktop and entering bad password, there
was a dialog saying "Invalid password" or something similiar. Since I'm
on AC, after entering bad password there is a dialog too, but saying:
"Caonnot unlock session because authentication system failed to work.
You must kill kdesktop_lock (pid 12345) manually". This information is
misleading, as the authentication system _did not_ failed to work. It
_worked ok_ and checked that password was invalid. Note about manually
killing shouldn't be there too. I suspect bad pam return value
comparison or something, but I'm not familiar enough with kde sources to
fix it.
