                  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.
