This shows the same > behaviour. Putting (server-start) in your .emacs is most of the time not the same as using emacs -Q -f server-start& so please try that, and even better, please try what Stefan asked: Actually, can you just try it without any emacsclient/server? I.e. start Emacs on one of the screens, then do M-x make-frame-on-display and specify the other display. Make sure that you use emacs -Q& when trying the above. Thanks
