I have a similar problem on Fedora Core 4, using the Gnome
desktop. Once I sent a report about that to the emacs-devel
list:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.devel/39702
The solution I wrote there might not help your problem, though.
The problem is in Emacs built with --with-x-toolkit=lucid (which
is the default). No problem in the one built with --with-gtk,
but /usr/bin/emacs-21.4 that FC4 provides seems to have been
configured as the default.
Masatake YAMATO who is one of the Emacs developers told me that
he will improve it, although it has not been achieved yet. I'll
forward this thread to him.
