additional comment/description - obviously I am slower than you. I am
very sorry about that. Last night I got the thought, that the
screensaver-thing is only a side-effect:

Since the PC is booting without any /etc/X11/xorg.conf, a second odd
behaviour is gone:

During booting I had to move the mouse continiously without any break,
only then I got the final X-desktop after the login screen (I changed to
auto-login-mode). Otherwise I got also a black screen with the
propietary driver. Ctrl+Alt+F[1-12] did not  work, also Ctrl+Alt+- /
Ctrl+Alt++.

Same happened without  propietary driver, beside a black screen also a
scrambled colourful in low resolution was passible.

Work-around: 
Booting into safe-mode, manual startx, and now the problems were gone, IF I made only reboots. 
UNTIL PC-shutdown, after that I got the described screen-problem again.

Hope this helps, too.

Greetings & thanks again!
