Unfortunately, I don't use KDE, so I don't really know. Can you connect
remotely through SSH to the system and try "ps xau" to find out what
programs are running? This could provide some hint about the locking
program KDE uses.

Actually it's KDE issue

Make sure /usr/local/bin/kcheckpass is suid root.

I have the same issue. kcheckpass is suid root and works:

tijl@kalimero ~% kcheckpass; echo $?
Password:
0
tijl@kalimero ~%

The error message given when I try to unlock is:

Cannot unlock session because the authentication system failed to work;
you must kill kdesktop_lock (pid xxxx) manually.
