Binary package hint: gnome-screensaver

Entry in auth.log after I logged back in to a locked screen.

May 12 17:55:32 wt gnome-screensaver-dialog: pam_smbpass(gnome-screensaver:auth): Cannot access samba password database, not running as root.
May 12 17:55:32 wt gnome-screensaver-dialog: gkr-pam: unlocked 'login' keyring 


I got logged in but think something is wrong with the way that gnome-screensaver-dialog is access password db's.

Can you help?
