Screen Saver in Mint KDE17.1

Mon Mar 02, 2015 11:26 pm
I am new to KDE and Linux Mint, I would like to understand how to activate Screensaver if there is such a thing in Mint KDE17.1. It is a bit different than Mate, which was my first distro. I'm guessing that it is just a matter of going to the "Power management > Energy Savings > and selecting "Switch off After"

Also, where are the files for Screensaver? are they the "pictures" file-by default-as in Mate? I guess I could test this on my own but don't want to make a mess of stuff, I'm a bit timid with all this computer stuff.

Thanks pcpunk

systemsettings -> monitor and display -> screen locker

there are large number of choices, when you click on one it previews to the right and you can then test it full screen and/or adjust it with the setup button
