If you're in KDE, right-click the desktop and select "Configure
Desktop".  Change the screensaver to whatever you want or disable it.
On my home system, it's just a black screen.  At work, we always boot
into run level 3 and never leave them logged on.

Is it that hard for your assistant to actually log on?  Leaving a
console session running isn't normally appropriate...
