Hi Jörg,
Ah!
What you are probably seeing is screen blanking. The best discussion
of this, with all bells and whistles, is surely
<https://blogs.oracle.com/ThinkThin/entry/one_blank_to_rule_them>.
Done all that.
You didn't tell us your server platform. There may be some
platform-specific energy-saving mechanism that you haven't considered yet.
Otherwise I have no more ideas. It would take some deeper debugging to
find out where the blanking is triggered.
I'd probably start by running a background script that occasionally logs
'xset -q' and 'utset' results for the display/session while your kiosk
stuff is running. And check for all kinds of screensaver or
energy-saving related things.
If you still care about this: could you post utquery results for one
of your DTUs
Also gone in through the gui on the DTU and set the Blanking to 0 as a
trial, still goes black after 5 minutes.

So this DTU *has* loaded the .parms file (you can see that from the
presence of the "parmsVersion" key). It doesn't list the poweroff
parameter, because SR1 units don't support poweroff.
IOW: you don't need to worry about .parms loading when looking at your
problem.
Have set up .xscreensaver correctly in the prototype and it is passed
into the kiosk user home directory correctly. Call xset in the startup
script for the slideshow with noblank as per the blog mentioned.
IIRC the blog recommedns three xset calls altogether. If you have
followed that, it'll be hard to do more by mail.
Cheers
