I haven't :-( In fact, I can't find anything with such a list.

Somebody misguided you, no screen saver is in built into the kernel (except
the screen blanking feature which is DPMS for saving power in screen save
mode).


You're right -- this is the silly kind of thing that you'd expect of NT, but not Linux.

Screen savers are also just like other program installed in some directory(I
never tried looking for that though.).

The KDE screensavers are /usr/bin/*.kss (interestingly that includes one called xscreensaver.kss which seems to invoke the xscreensaver screensavers that are in /usr/X11R6/lib/xscreensaver (these are the ones that gnome uses).
