When using KDE I sometimes lock my screen,

lately I have been having a problem entering my password to unlock the 
screen...

1) I am entering the correct password
2) Yes, the case is correct

I end up having to ssh into the box and killing the lock...

haddock:/ # ps -ef|grep kdesktop_lock
devel1    7826  1509  0 Nov05 ?        00:00:00 
/opt/kde3/bin/kdesktop_lock --forcelock
root     22110 23637  0 12:34 pts/6    00:00:00 grep kdesktop_lock
haddock:/ #  kill -9 7826 

Now the screen is unlocked and ready for use.

Does anyone know how to remedy this?

thanks
