Strangely, when I tried with the new mu file in place I got a blank screen forever and no interaction, as if it were in an infinite loop. The last message was "loaded /etc/emacs/site-start.d/50psvn.el". Quitting and repeating made no difference. Then as soon as I placed (setq debug-on-quit t) in my .emacs, it started working. > BTW, you are apparently using an old development version of Emacs. > If you can, you should probably upgrade to at least Emacs 23.2 (or > downgrade to Emacs 23.1). I just run what "sudo apt-get install emacs-snapshot-dbg" gives me. These days I'm reluctant to install/upgrad large software packages other than via the ubuntu repository. When something goes wrong it's a daunting task to fix it...
