Bug#457777: gnome-screensaver: UserAuthDir=/tmp did not help

[Daniel Blaschke]

Package: gnome-screensaver
Version: 2.22.2-2
Followup-For: Bug #457777

I tried with "UserAuthDir=/tmp" in /etc/gdm/gdm.conf as Vasilis suggested, but
that did not help: still getting locked out on a regular basis and have to kill
the running screensaver hack using a remote ssh login.
