Obviously later in your init file something tries to manipulate the variable font-lock-defaults-alist which does not exist in GNU Emacs 24. First correct this error! > Hi Pete Using process of elimination, I finally locate the offending line in my "long" ~/.emacs. :) (require 'font-menus) Can you add it to your ~/.emacs and see if you can replicate the same problem I encountered earlier? If I recall correctly, it was added to my ~/.emacs way back when using in Emacs 21.1. It seems that combination of the 3 below can't co-exist. Emacs 24.1.1 (require 'font-menus) (setq-default whitespace-style '(face tabs trailing)) However, any combinations of any 2 of the 3 above are OK. BTW, I can live without font-menus if I have to choose between it and whitespace-mode. But, it'll be nice if I can have both. Thanks. Fan
