I think you can disable it by
setting /apps/gnome_settings_daemon/plugins/screensaver/active to false.

  
      

Where do I find /apps/gnome_settings/ ... to change the flag?
    

That's a gconf setting. You need to either use the GUI tool,
gconf-editor or gconftool-2 from a terminal.

  

Great Sven - that seems to have worked just fine.  Handy little application that gconf-editor.  I spent some time going through the various options, but couldn't find a way to automate xscreensaver or conky to be started at login.  Is there a way to do this using gconf-editor or do I rely on the session-preferences to do that?  If the latter, then I must be doing something quite wrong, because these two are not being started thus far.

Any thoughts?

Thanks again.
