You are using SID (unstable brach), maybe it's a bug in some Debian
package.. have you installed/updated new/some packages ?
You can run Emacs with '--debug-init' to see what's go on..

Maybe by studying Sid documentation and finding out which system-wide GNU Emacs start-up file is being used now... (or trace its use with some *trace command)
One other option would be to launch GNU Emacs with --no-site-file (or simply -q?).
OTOH you can try to find out to which values custom-file and user-init-file are set. This could show an easy work-around. The variable site-run-file stores the name of the system-wide GNU Emacs start-up file, so you can find and study it as well.

Well, I try to add some bug to my .emacs file (zzz letters in the first
line) and realize that that actually Emacs load ~/.emacs file, but the
Emacs window is so big that I can't see neither it's bottom nor the
right edge.
I must to change Emacs window geometry to get window smaller.
It's interesting that that Emacs window geometry varying when one uses
XDM or GDM display managers with the same setup in the ~/.emacs file.

Because different values for the resources are used? You can overcome these by setting values on the command line when launching GNU Emacs.
