1- ensure you have a DISPLAY environment variable referencing your
current display. Usually, it means:
export DISPLAY=:0.0
emacs
You may also launch emacs with an explicit display:
emacs --display :0.0
2- If that doesn't work, check the compilation logs. Perhaps it
couldn't find X libraries, so it configured a version without X
anyways. Then you'll have to find out why it cannot find the X
libraries it needs, and pass additionnal options to configure to let
it know where yours are.
