athena% ps -ef|grep xss
nobody 2206 2205 0 12:00:33 pts/3 0:00 /usr/athena/bin/xss -no-splash -no-start-locked
root 2205 2203 0 12:00:33 pts/3 0:00 xss-button
Then lock screen ... Since xss is running as nobody it wants nobody's
password which doesn't seem to exist (certainly I don't know it). I
had to log in remotely to kill it.
Something more graceful should happen here ...
