Who has success with Emacs? (Was: Emacs-20.5 refuses to start under X)



Hello,

according to the fact that there is so less response to my grave
Emacs20 problem, I'd like to ask
  >> Is there anybody who is able to run the latest Emacs20
     packages together with the XFree-3.3.6 packages?? <<
I suspect a bug which makes Emacs20 unusable under X but if this would
be the case, more traffic according to this topic would occure.  So
I wonder if I did break my own system in any way and all others
have no problems?  But I did not do anything than using dselect
to intall the latest packages.

It's really annoying to be three days without Emacs :-((. 

Hier is the problem I reported in previous mails:
> An `strace emacs` ends with

> read(4, "\1\2\265\0\0\0\0\0\24\0@\3\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\1\0\0\0\0\0"..., 32) = 32
> writev(4, [{"1\0\20\0\n\0007\0", 8}, {"-Misc-Fixed-bold-R-Normal-*-15-1"..., 55}, {"\0", 1}], 3) = 64
> read(4, 0xbfffe06c, 32)                 = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable)
> select(5, [4], NULL, NULL, NULL

Kind regards

         Andreas.
