Dead Screen

independence@titan ~ $ screen -r
There is a screen on:
8541.pts-0.titan       (Dead ???)
Remove dead screens with 'screen -wipe'.
There is no screen to be resumed.

This means that your screen has been killed while you were away. Probably because of a server reboot or similar. Just type 'screen -wipe' and then start a new screen.

If you want your screens to automatically restart when the system boots up after a reboot, read this howto on autostarting apps: Howto/Autostart.
