The only thing that comes to my mind is to try to reproduce the problem with "emacs -q -no-site-file". If it still happens there, then it must be a bug and M-x report-emacs-bug RET is your friend. If it makes the problem go away, then you can try "emacs -q". If that shows the problem then there is something wrong in site-start.el or default.el. If "emacs -q" also doesn't show the problem, then something is fishy in ~/.emacs. For finding the problem in site-start.el or default.el or .emacs, I suggest to comment out the second half of the file. Then you know whether it's in the first half or in the second half. Then you halve the half and so on and pretty soon you'll find the problematic spot. Then you either know what to do, or you post another question saying the following lisp code fubars and ask for help. Kai
