I am currently running your xscreensaver utility on an SGI in
the student center, and it is exhibiting a rather strange
bug. When I lock the screen and then attempt to regain access to
my machine, it does not accept my password.
I tried typing in the root password, which works with the
standard SGI screensaver, and that did not work either. What did
work was typing in my old password! I changed my password a week
ago, and the previous password is the only one which will unlock
the xscreensaver.
