You might as well try the final release (2.6.1). > As before the fonts in text panes or widgets in GNU Emacs become unreadable > in the end.

That sounds like you probably have a bad value in ~/.Xresources and emacs is winning the race the first time. Please try moving aside ~/.Xresources and see what happens. FTB of the list, you did mention this to me yesterday, indicating that it had been a problem for a year or so, but this was the first time I've heard about it... > It makes no difference whether I use GNU Emacs 24.0.50 compiled with X > libraries from MacPorts or with some (more) up-to-date libraries from Fink, ... ? Fink doesn't include X libraries in their distribution...

What was the last version of XQuartz that worked for you? Let's try installing the server version from that release to see if the problem goes away. If it does, then we know it's a server issue... if not, then it's a client issue... --Jeremy _______________________________________________ Xquartz-dev mailing list Xquartz-dev@lists.macosforge.org http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/xquartz-dev
