While starting, the new frame appears in the correct size for half a second, then KDE seems to take over and maximizes the frame. I use icons/keys pointing to scripts like this one to start a small emacsclient which I use for quick notes or emails while working with other programs: #!/bin/bash emacsclient.emacs-snapshot -c -e "(set-frame-height (selected-frame) 18)" -e '(set-default-font "-Adobe-Courier-Medium-R-Normal--14-140-75-75-M-90-ISO8859-1")' -e "(ibuffer)" It's working fine under GNOME. KDE, however, insists on starting the frame maximized. Usually I have one or two maximized frames open to do my ordinary Emacs work. And this seems to confuse KDE, it seems to have a "memory" for that. This is surely a KDE problem. So, this is not the optimal group for that question. But hopefully somebody faced the same problem and can give me a hint.
