Everything is ok. I could even load Spacemacs > with its about 100 packages. > Yes, emacs-25 branch builds (adopting the work around 'echo 0 | sudo tee /proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space' before to start the build) but I do not use these builds in X, $ /opt/emacs/bin/emacs starts Emacs in the WSL terminal (aka DOS command prompt window in W10). It seems to work fine.. but have found an issue with the packages manager. See: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-emacs/2016-12/msg00777.html. Have you tried to use your builds in terminal mode (noX)? Angelo
