I did this (via ssh) $ pfexec chown root:bin kcheckpass $ pfexec chmod u+s kcheckpass $ ll kcheckpass 56 -rwsr-xr-x 1 root bin 56016 Jul 10 02:13 kcheckpass and then logged on to the machine on the console; while the screen was blanked when I selected "lock screen", I got the same error as before when I tried to unlock it.
