Too weird. You have screen savers when you're logged in as root? Something you 
should never do under any circumstances BTW, at least not on a networked 
system.

If they work as root but not as user then you'll definitely have to check 
permissions as someone previously suggested. What security level did you 
install at?

Keep trying and meantime post your security level so the list knows whether 
you've actually restricted yourself out of the proper groups for such things.

A final thought; instead of running as root open a terminal then, as super 
user, type:

kcontrol [Enter]

Set the screen savers, backgrounds, power control whatever, and then log out 
of the terminal, log out your user identity, then log back in. You may get 
lucky even if the permissions are set too high. This is all based on the 
assumption you're running KDE as your desktop manager. I hope I'm not 
assuming too much here. If so ignore me.

Let the list know?

Regards;
Charlie
