(Instructions are in the FAQ) I don't see anything in the FAQ about D-BUS. One other thing. I now have two Screensaver selections under Desktop/Preferences. One has the old icon (screen with the red fire in front of it), and when I open that one, it says "The XScreenSaver daemon doesn't seem to be running on display ":0.0". Launch it now? If I click on OK, it starts up and the screensaver works, but screenlock still does not.
