Lock session: cannot log back in

Hi all I've had a problem that I have seen come up in the forums now and again, where if you lock the session, you cannot log back in (its says "Password Incoorect"). The solution offered in these threads is to set the correct permissions on the kcheckpass program to 4755 and make sure it is owned by root. However, it does not fix the problem for me.

Mounting USB flash drive

Hi all I am wondering how to get KDE to automount my USB flash drive when I plug it in. If I plug the stick in before booting, the drive appears on my desktop, and I can use it and safely remove it. However, it is not recognized if I plug it in at anytime post-boot. Is there any way to achieve this? I am using KDE 3.5.5. Thanks. Hans
