Screensaver in linux is normally done using xscreensaver

When you load fluxbox, either through xdm,gdm,kdm... or by typing startx you will need to run:
xscreensaver -nosplash

This will load xscreensaver, there are some other options that you can pass to it.. To then lock your screen run: 
xscreensaver-command -lock

Look at man for more options to both commands
