well, in my system, screen savers appear in the Control Center list if they
have a .desktop file here:
/opt/kde/share/applnk/System/ScreenSavers/
then the screen savers are in /opt/kde/bin
for example, I use Kclock as a screen saver, and I would like that ktorrent
is launched with it
this is the file: /opt/kde/share/applnk/System/ScreenSavers/KClock.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Exec=kclock.kss
Icon=kscreensaver
