Hopefully that will be resolved when I build my own > Emacs 22 with the X Toolkit and debug my .emacs a bit more. Please send a M-x report-emacs-bug complaining about those problems. Emacs-22 uses the X toolkit scrollbars by default (obviously your build comes from a distribution which overrode this default) but Emacs-23 will probably use Gtk by default, so we'd want to know about such problems. Also maybe we can do something about the slow startup. I remember around the Emacs-21.1 timeframe, a lot of optimization took place to reduce the network-communication needed at startup, but I'm pretty sure we can do more. > I'll be glad when Emacs is finished :) Any day now, Stefan
