Sorry, just some leftover knowledge from beta8 :-). From the manual that time:
 -L                   [X11 only] Load X11 ICC_PROFILE property profile into LUT
but I think this is obsolete now.

My wild guess is that your screensaver are delayed in it's upstart,
and your dispwin command are executed before gnome-screensaver are
started.
Anyway, maybe you should don't care about the screensaver problem at
all and  let the linux distributions fix the problem?
