Hi list,
   i'm trying to install the rss-glx screensaver and i'm using the KDE
window manager.
After a successful installation i can see the kscreensaver entries in
the "Screen Saver" section of the kcontrol module. However when i try
to test the screensaver or tweak the screensaver with the setup option
nothing happens.
Looking into more details in the .desktop links that define the menu
entries, it appears that it is searching for two programs "kxsconfig"
for the setup and "kxsrun" for the run part, that are actually non
existing in my machine....

Here's an example for the solarwinds saver:

#cat /usr/share/applnk/System/ScreenSavers/solarwinds.desktop

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Exec=solarwinds
Icon=kscreensaver
Type=Application
Actions=InWindow;Root
Name=Solarwinds (GL)

[Desktop Action Setup]
Exec=kxsconfig solarwinds
Name=Setup...

[Desktop Action InWindow]
Exec=kxsrun solarwinds -- -window-id %w
Name=Display in specified window
NoDisplay=true

[Desktop Action Root]
Exec=kxsrun solarwinds -- --root
Name=Display in root window
NoDisplay=true


Any ideas?

PS: they are working well if one calls them directly on the command line
(i.d. /usr/lib/misc/xscreensaver/solarwinds)

Regards,
MC
