        I run your script file,
        Got the following output in the logfile:

        xscreensaver running
        xscreensaver already disabled

        and the screen is still blank

              @micksel if u wiggle the mouse, or hit enter on a keyboard, does the screen come back?

              If not, hit alt-spacebar, n
              To minimize mm.
