As I feared, when I open the KDE Desktop configuration, there are no screen savers shown. It's the same thing that happened the last time I tried installing Gnome packages.
This is really annoying and, I'd say, unacceptable.
Where is that configuration? I opened the KDE control center (kde 3), but I can't find the screensaver configuration there. Where should it be?
KDE Control Center (Personal Settings) (KDE 3.5) -> Appearance & Themes -> Screen Saver

Ah, I used the search box, and the screen saver configuration appeared. And yes, I can see the list of screen savers. So, if you can not see it, you have a local problem that should be solvable.
In principle, sure. But it has happened twice, and it was because I installed some Gnome packages. In the past I installed both Gnome and KDE, but this time, since the "patterns" business during installation does not accommodate installing both (everything I tried other than just picking the KDE 3.5 and changing nothing else left me with Gnome instead of KDE). And as I've stated, adding Gnome packages to my installed system causes this problem. And it's not the case that because your system doesn't exhibit this symptom that there's a problem with mine.
(I have kde3, kde4, and gnome installed, all complete, in 11.0. The test I made for kde3 while running gnome).
This is openSUSE 11.1, not 11.0.
