I'm not a guru at all...   Trying anyway.

If the session is gnome-based, you might try this or a variant of it.
It will kill the mandatory screen lock if there is one.

You might also check out gconf at sites such as:

http://library.gnome.org/admin/system-admin-guide/stable/gconf-0.html.en

I don't know much about the local media, but I think there is an entry
for lts.conf regarding it.  I think it's "LOCALDEV=FALSE".  You might
try that.
