Im running prey 0.6.0 on ubuntu 13.04 64bit, i tried to test the lock screen feature, but it didn't unlocked my screen.

I tried with my user password, root password, control panel password... it remains locked. I had to kill a proces by logging via ssh...

Hello @asbruff, I know this reply might come a little late. Did your password have any spaces in it?

hi @mauricioschneider, yes it's too late.. XD no, my password didn't have any spaces. I solved logging in via ssh, changing prey's config settings and rebooting. It's been a bit tricky, but i don't think an average user could even login via ssh...
