Forgive me if my question is misdirected or unclear; I am a student and aspiring developer and am trying to communicate with those who I think will know more about the problem I am experiencing. I am using gnu emacs 23.3.1 x86_64-pc-linux-gnu GTK+ version 2.24.5 on Ubuntu 11.10 in Gnome. When I'm working in emacs on various file types ( .cpp, .h ) sometimes the text I have just typed does not show as itself but the cursor moves forward and the text has in fact been typed into the buffer. Perhaps my problem is not clear to the reader; consider an event where one types text into any screen with a white background; as the word "apple" is typed, only "a " shows up, or a variation thereof with corruption and distortion. This happens with whole lines or words. I regret installing 11.10 for the multitude of conflicts I've experienced. I figure I will revert to 11.04 or 10.10 or another distro and am certain I this problem will cease to exist. However doing so will take time and I'm busy working on an assignment; may anyone provide information as to why and how my problem occurs? Sincerely, - -- Alexander -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQEgBAEBAgAGBQJOpHnfAAoJEBx5FwZYf9W4Uj8IIJwshMZC6yxUZKUiyjNvYF88 CS6eeOgramm5T+jPEzWOTQtAz66DOzsHravmB99tf11YzZ2rRGvgYieGyauebGXI NJVDZ00ziCHLwrL2uTv/YPTjxv2ofcQpac1/rgJZ8uQvD1SgDJ5v3qCu7XMN6TCS M/MLm6OzisyxudqPxmHzEPA/36d0T2Ab7jS5NhYHFEeQDp6VU9KQq6d19zoCzJSS TzBjZQRmtRCtPtVUi8/So7WLgJHyonLE59oiTAlB83vrDsnC/QGjj5gIHeO8stuT at6tqRdoe+KikYxZFcmCkAXjHzBx0zYNki5wcr2b06pc5IeJ8L86egZb2sMyJm0R lY5E =CxHq -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
