Bug Description
When being prompted by xscreensaver, I can enter my password - however, it will not be accepted.
I have to kill xscreensaver via console to re-gain access.
Yes, my password contains special characters - but they are the "standard" ones like ",.@-/"

Thanks for your report. Do you think the keyboard layout can be wrong? Does it work if you type in your password as if you had a US English keyboard for instance?
