I have moved the emacs window to the right a little.
In reality it is exactly on top of the shell window.
I have also shrunk it to make the screenshot smaller.

Yup. That's normal too.
I see in the minibuffer
"When done with a buffer, type C-x #"
(which is just a statement, not a question waiting for me to answer.)

Correct.

I'm just using icewm.
If I do emacs -Q -f server-start &
it makes a window anchored at the upper left,
and covers up my xterm,
so I don't even see where my yyyyy's go too.

Well there is a hollow prompt there in the minibuffer of my image above.
That means input is not going to be seen by emacs.

Well my yyyyy's end up in the shell, which is underneath the emacs
window asking me the for the y,n.
