Okay, adding the above session line to init works, but then I lose the  
background of the system styles; I don't have any user styles installed.  
In "startup" there is a line that sets the background to solid black. If I  
comment out that line then I get the default KDM splash screen. (I'm  
starting Fluxbox from KDM.)

Putting "xscreensaver &" in .xinitrc or .xsession doesn't work either.
