I have that installed here. Question now is, is that what locks my screen or is KDE/sddm/something else doing that besides xscreensaver. >From my poking around, I don't think I'm using xscreensaver. I'm trying to figure out how that works so I can get it to be used with KDE and any other GUI I use. Being able to use ctrl+alt=L would be a nice bonus. Thanks for that info. It gets me started.
