I have two machines: one running a GNU/Linux Fedora FC5 system, and another running W2K with an "oldish" commercial X-win32 server. Ping times between the two systems are sub millisecond. When I start 'emacs -Q' on the GNU/Linux box with DISPLAY=:0.0 the emacs window appears without delay. However when I start 'emacs -Q' on the GNU/Linux box with DISPLAY=192.168.0.3:0.0 (the W2k box) it hangs. No emacs window appears until I generate an X event on the X-win32-5.3 server, e.g. by moving the mouse, pressing the ctrl key, etc. It doesn't hang all the time, maybe because there are sometimes pending xevents in the queue? It never happens if another emacs is already running. I'm not sure how long this has been happening as I've been away for about a month. -- Peter Whaite
