> I do have some more information -- the .emacs starts to load, but it never loads my .emacs.desktop which is in the same directory as the .emacs .  So, how can I figure out what actually the .emacs is doing?  The only thing I see in the *Messages* buffer is a message indicating that the save-place is loaded, so this is what I need to do --somehow trouble the .emacs file and see where it is going wrong.

How does your .emacs load the desktop file?

Fixed, just had to customize the correct variables i.e. where to search for the .desktop file -- not sure why it worked before.

Thanks.
