Sorry if this is the wrong place to post a bug, but I tried the M-x report-emacs-bug, and it just said "Cannot open load file: No such file or directory, emacs-19"??

The bug I have, since upgrading to Ubuntu 24.04 and install emacs29 is that the initial frame has width x height of 20 x 9, even though I have a .Xresources file containing
   Emacs*geometry: 100x40+1900+0
end a default-frame-alist of
  Value:
  ((font . "Monospace-10")
   (height . 42)
   (width . 90)
   (tool-bar-lines . 0)
   (menu-bar-lines . 1)
   (top . 0)
   (left . 1200))
  Original value was nil
set up by my .emacs file.

Using either the pull-down File->New Frame, or C-x 5 2, both generate new frames of the 20 x 9 size.

I can send the .emacs file if needed, but note that "emacs -D' also gives the same default size of 20 x 9, so I don't think it is a problem with my .emacs file - which did work OK under Ubuntu 22.04 and emacs28.

Any insights gratefully received.

cheers,

Sorry, forgot to add, in case it is relevant, that when run from the command line, emacs gives many messages of the form:
  (emacs:1556302): Gtk-CRITICAL **: 12:40:47.974: gtk_distribute_natural_allocation: assertion 'extra_space >= 0' failed

This means nothing to me, but presumably is important?

For some reason, debbugs created a new bug from this, so I'm now
merging them.

Probably some of your customizations point to such a file or
directory.  Please take a good look at your init files.
