Press alt-f2 and then type in gconf-editor. then go to apps-%26gt;gnome-screensaver and change mode to blank-only. This will change the screen saver to only display a blank. Then use the gui and change it to something else.How do I change my Gnome screensaver without the GUI?
Open a terminal window and type:
gconf-editor
Expand Apps and find ';gnome-screensaver';
Find the key called ';themes'; and edit it to say ';screensavers-personal-slideshow';
This will set it up to do a slideshow of you Pictures folder.
You should now be able to get back in to the GUI tool to change your screensaver.
Good Luck!
