Sorry, I should have clarified that I'm running Breezy.  In any case,
the screensaver configuration tool appears to have taken care of those
parameters you are referring to:

  $ grep imageDirectory ~/.xscreensaver
  imageDirectory: /home/nitebirdz/Pictures
  
  $ grep chooseRandomImages ~/.xscreensaver
  chooseRandomImages: True 


Still, as I explained in the original email, it doesn't work and it
shows the error message about "no suitable image" being found in the
specified directory, as if perhaps they should be in a format other than
just JPG.
