The screensavers he is referring to are the KDE ones, not the Xscreensavers mentioned in your reference. There have been posts on the suse-kde list about this problem. Seems the kdeartwork3 rpm, probably others as well, are not being compiled on a 9.1 setup. A simple recompile of kdeartwork3 source rpm on your system will fix the Xscreensavers without doing the links. The KDE screensavers require a bit more as they are not even configured to compile. They are there, but alterations in the .diff file need to be made to get them to compile.

Hmmm, i just upgraded to 9.3, and yet again, the list of screensavers disappeared from the KDE control panel applet. I created the links in the below-cited thread, and still no love. Anyone else having this issue again? On Thu, 2004-09-16 at 10:38 -0500, Steve Kratz wrote:
