Chances are you have to install the rpms for those packages.
Mount the RedHat cd and install them from there:
mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
cd /mnt/cdrom/RedHat/RPMS
ls *screensav*
ls *afters*
There should be a few files displayed by the ls commands above.
Do "rpm -Uvh" on the files displayed and most of your problems should go
away :)
(ie. rpm -Uvh xscreensaver*)
Not sure where to find the afterstepdoc though.
