Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.
Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org mailing list. Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug and the precise symptoms of the bug: ==== Description: I frequently use the same emacs session shared between two X displays, one real (my workstation console) and one in a Xvnc server, for when I connect remotely through my laptop. If I leave the emacs on one display with the minibuffer active, emacs on the other display does not respond to anything until the minibuffer input is resolved (input entered, or quit). This is particularly annoying if I am working through VNC as I cannot control the workstation console and I have to kill my emacs session which has been running for weeks with lots of buffers and state. To reproduce: 1) Open Emacs on a X display 2) Use make-frame-on-display to open Emacs in a different display. It's simplest to use a console-less vnc server or Xnest. 3) On the first display, do find-file (or M-x, or any other minibuffer command) 4) On the second display, Emacs cannot be used any more. Menus can be opened, but no action has any effect while the minibuffer on the first display is active Expected behaviour: No different than multiple frames on the same display: any action can be performed, and an action that requires the minibuffer results in the first minibuffer input being cancelled with "command attempted to use minibuffer while in minibuffer". Either that, or allow multiple active minibuffers, but I assue the latter is harder. If the fix is simple I would appreciate a line or two that I can drop in my .emacs, or a patch to emacs files that I can use while the fix makes its way into my distribution. Please let me know if I can provide any additional information. I cannot easily test on emacs 21 right now, but I think I recall this happening on emacs 21 a couple of times. Regards, Ovy ======== If emacs crashed, and you have the emacs process in the gdb debugger, please include the output from the following gdb commands: `bt full' and `xbacktrace'. If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file /usr/share/emacs/22.0.50/etc/DEBUG for instructions.
