I've recently started having trouble with screenblank -- it won't
un-blank!

Everything's fine if suntools running, but if, for instance, you're at the
"login" prompt, you have to "login" blind, and once "suntools" starts
running, you get your screen back!

The funny thing is everything used to work as advertised, and then stopped
about a week ago.

System info:  Sun 3/60 Color, SunOS 3.5, Local disk

Anyone know what the gotcha is?
