is the command required. I'm on Kubuntu 10.04 and installed xscreensavers as well as rss-glx
Might I suggest that this is really a shortcoming in the setup of kde? Would it not be more helpful for /usr/share/kde4/services/ScreenSavers/ to symlink to /usr/share/applnk/System/ScreenSavers/ and have all of its standard contents in there? Using a system wide location is surely preferable?

For complete clarity:
sudo cp /usr/share/ applnk/ System/ ScreenSavers/ *.desktop /usr/share/ kde4/services/ ScreenSavers/
