* bug#33686: 25.1; desktop-mode restore, issue with frame size

I'm using (desktop-save-mode 1) to save a session which I then reload,
but logging in remotely from a different machine with a different
resolution display. Something stored in the desktop winds up setting
frame width to 150 characters rather than the 87 characters it was saved
with.  Height seems unaffected.

In detail:

  - Start emacs on machine `homedog` with one monitor, resolution
    3840x2160. 
  - Exit emacs, writing .desktop file.
  - Remote login to `homedog` from machine `jar`, using `ssh -X` to
    forward the X server connection.  Machine `jar` has one monitor,
    resolution 1920x1200.  
  - Start emacs on homedog, but with DISPLAY environment variable set to
    `localhost:10.0`, which is the forwarded X connection.

When the dust settles after initialization, the emacs frame seems to be
about the right height, but it is much wider than it should be.

Interestingly, if I go in the opposite direction---save the desktop
while the display is on `jar`, then relaunch emacs from `homedog` with
its native display, there are no issues.

The waters are muddy here.  I see a number of frame-size changes on
startup, which I imagine have to do with interactions between
desktop-mode and font-size setting.  I had hoped to poke at it and come
up with a workaround, but appeal to
https://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/46274/how-to-get-desktop-read-to-ignore-modify-frame-size
produced only the suggestion that I file a bug report.

My Emacs Lisp skills are limited, and this issue is not show-stopping,
as I can always resize the window after startup.  But if you have
suggestions about how I might come up with better information, please
let me know.

Do you also have any init files?  If so, please empty them and try
again.  It's important to understand whether the problem is with
desktop-save-mode alone, or some of your other customizations
interfere.

I suspect there is scaling going on on 'homedog', which means that you
need to use a version of emacs that has commit
2892f05792e1f52b0966f92c5ed1aa75dcdd66a3, which fixed things so that
frameset-restore (which is used by desktop) correctly calculates frame
sizes.

In short: can you try emacs-26?

Robert

I made plans to follow up this bug, but life got in the way.
The machine that manifested the bug has just been decommissioned.

Thanks for the help, and please close the ticket.
