Well, in my case (and 3 different machine) its very consistent.
I can only lock once. Unless I kill the kscreenlocker daemon, attempting
to lock via keyboard (Ctrl-Alt-L) or by clicking on the "lock" tray
icon, has no effect.

Never the less, as I said in the bug report, it may have something to
the nVidia drivers that I'm using. I'll try reproduce the problem with
the nouveau drivers when I have some free time.
