I'll point out these URLs

https://www.jwz.org/xscreensaver/man2.html

1 - You should set this to 0 so it never blanks the screen (hides the
animation/screensaver)
2 - This is how long the animation should run before restarting the
animation.

3 - This doesn't apply directly to lubuntu, but there is a setting where
you can set your startup scripts in lubuntu
