I configured --with-x and compiled/installed without any issues, but when I execute the new Emacs, it runs in the terminal instead of an X window. The older Emacs will run happily with or without X. Any Ubuntu/Debian users out there know what could be different with the one that I compiled? Jay, I compiled CVS Emacs on Ubuntu GNU/Linux with no options, I may be wrong, but that option is to configure Emacs to compile with no X, '--with-x=no', instead of the default in which the configure script looks for X. -- Sean Sieger
