When you press the "Lock Screen" Button kdesktop_lock calls xscreensaver.kss
with the argument "-root", which is currently not supported.  That means the
xscreensaver will not come up.

However the attached patch adds this feature.  You cannot just run 
"xscreensaver-command -lock"  that is not how KDE Screensaver work.
With the patch the script will look at the users ~/.xscreensaver file and
find the selected hack and runs it. It's not perfect but works.  If you
see a need for improvement here, please let me know.

If you want I can try to help with bug #237661, too.

Regards,

    Peter
