Hi Era, Thanks for all your help in all of the comments you've made (i think each one has something useful). Just for reference for anybody who happens to have the same problem and stumbles over this thread, what i ended up doing is: sudo apt-get --reinstall install emacs22-gtk which seems

Thanks Era for looking into this. The answer is "yes": If i start with -q (or --no-init-file) it comes up exactly the same. So i don't think the fault is the ~/.emacs. The *Messages* buffer has this in it: ("emacs") Loading encoded-kb...done command-line: Symbol's value as variable is v

Public bug reported: Binary package hint: emacs22 This concerns emacs on ubuntu 9.10. When i start emacs (command line or not) i get this message "Symbol's value as variable is void: on" (What i expect, of course, is no such message but rather an opened file.) This seems to happen whether
