          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.
