You described in your first mail, that you get a black, blank screen in random
mode.
First, the "blank screen" screensaver is one of the randomly selected savers,
so this can be a normal behaviour.
But you described, that you already removed the binary for this from your
disk. What I see in the online help, the correct way to remove a screensaver
from the available list is to rename its desktop file, which is located in
$KDEDIR/share/applnk/System/ScreenSavers
so that it does no longer end in .desktop.
Try to rename KBlankscreen.desktop, or simply try to use a specific
screensaver and not "random" to check if at least that works.
