you are right, I wouldn't want that, but what I do want is a screensaver
on the server itself, which I run with a gnome desktop.  I do not want
to run the server with KDE.  I want a screensaver on gnome that I can
lock requiring a password to unlock, but a little better than just a
blank screen.  Screensavers are not a requirement of mine on the
workstations
