I'm still getting the 'No screen sessions found' error.  Are you sure
that 'stuff' is being sent from a second user account.  If both
terminals are logged into the same account, 'stuff' works nicely.  If
they are both logged into separate accounts, then 'stuff' gives that
error even if multiuser otherwise works.
