coplate,
Great job done in troubleshooting and fixing this behaviour!
Your fix: DISPLAY ":0.0" before the script works OK for me too. Thanks a lot for your time and effort!

One small point. In your earlier script, you had used the shebang "#!/bin/sh", which you have changed in your latest to "#!/bin/bash". When I set up my script with "#!/bin/sh", it didn't work. Worked only with "#!/bin/bash"!

Also, it works even if the "&" is removed from the end, but now the kindle search box remains visible inside the kterm window. Have to do a clear or turn the screensaver on and off!

So, one more thing which was working OK on the PW1 but not on PW3/KT3 is fixed. Will check and confirm on KT3 next.
