I mean I want to block Ctrl+Alt+F1 (F2,...) from >xscreensaver. Ctrl+Alt+F1 (F2,...) will take you to the console where anyone can log on including root. If root logs on, they can kill the screensaver. I know X has the 'Dont Zap' option but I am not sure whether it applies in this case. A user has to be able to kill the processes they start, so I think the only way to do what you want is to not start X by using startx. You will have to start X using one of gdm, xdm or kdm. Make sure that your XF86Config file has all the 'Dont Zap/Kill' options set and this should work.
