My question is: as root, is there a way that I can set every user's
screen saver preferences to NOT lock the screen?
If the desktop is KDE, you can do the following:
Edit the following file:
/usr/share/kde-settings/kde-profile/default/share/config/kdesktoprc
The particular thing of interest is the following stanza:
[ScreenSaver]
Enabled=true
Lock=true
LockGrace=120000
Priority=19
Saver=KRandom.desktop
Timeout=1800
You can set Lock=false
You should also be able to use the KDE immutable option next to the
stanza name so that users cannot override these settings, eg.
[ScreenSaver] [$i]
Note though, that an rpm update may obliterate your changes, so you
could create your own kde profile and add it in /etc/kderc which is how
I've done similar things for our computer labs.
