I've done the compile and it works great...fonts look wonderful. However, the problem is the custom compiled emacs doesn't find all my pre-installed Debian packaged modes and utilities, like ecb, ruby-mode, etc. It appears that the dpkg's put the various installed files in: /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp /usr/share/emacs22/site-lisp Then, when I start emacs, these are already there, loaded. Can someone tell me what configurations settings I need to do to make these work with my custom compile? Is it a ./configure option? Is it some central emacs config file? Can I inspect where my custom compile is looking for modes easily through emacs itself? Sorry for so many questions...I'm learning quickly, but there's a lot to learn! Thanks! John
