I suffer from this bug (and had created bug 550683 which I now believe to be a duplicate of the present one) since upgrading to Lucid.

I found myself running xscreensaver when it should not, and couldn't understand why it was now running.

I definitely think that xscreensaver should *not* auto-start just because its package is installed, it shoul be up to any given desktop environment to start it IF AND ONLY IF it is expected to run there.

It has nothing to do running when KDE or Gnome is in use.
