Is this a known bug? Hi Tom, Which window manager are you using? What do you mean by "not reachable?" If Ubuntu Netbook Edition maximizes the Emacs frame, the ediff-control-panel may end up beneath the active frame. You can customize this behavior with M-x customize-group RET ediff-window RET Look at the variable `ediff-window-setup-function'. You can customize it so that everything stays in one frame, which is probably best with limited screen space. Joel =2D-=20 Joel J.
