I am running the standard screen-lock/screen-saver function that comes
with KDE. Maybe it would be better to install xscreensaver, however the
KDE standard controls are integrated with the rest of the KDE system,
which seems to argue for keeping things as they are.

The only controls that I can find which KDE provides for screen locking
or saving are in: 
        Start->System Settings->Workspace Behavior->Screen Lockingan image of 
which is attached. There seems to be nothing for screen
saving as such. I had thought that doing this would be extremely easy,
but it seems not to be so.
