That probably makes more sense then to use Lynx, good idea.
What's with the "x" in the variable?
Would you mind telling me what values you used for date?

I've had issues with devmon not updating the bb-display and everything
going purple.
I've had this issue since day one (which is over two years now).
I created a "devmon watchdog" script that's runs every 5 min using lynx
(txt base html browser) which checks if the status of devmon (shows as dm
test) on bb-monitor. If its purple then I kill the devmon process and start
it up again....band-aid solution, but it does the trick.
I no script expert, but can share the bash script if you want/need.
Here's mine (replace xymonserver with your hostname):
#!/bin/sh
COL=`bb xymonserver "hobbitdboard xymonserver.dm fields=color"`
if [ "x$COL" == "xpurple" ] ; then
(date "+%x %X restarting purple devmon"
/etc/init.d/devmon restart) | tee /var/log/devmon-restart.log | mail
-s "Restarting devmon" xymonadmin
