My system seems to be mostly OK, and the emacs resolution problem seems to have fixed itself after (I think) one restart of the X system and one reboot. I have no idea what changed. Also, sorry to hear about your experience on the Ubuntu forums. I generally find them to be very helpful over there. Cheers. Ross -- Ross A. Laird, PhD www.rosslaird.info
