--- Begin Message ---Package: emacs23 Version: 23.2+1-2 Severity: normal When starting emacs with ssh -X <remoteSystem> emacs it produces the following error message: GConf Error: Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. See http://projects.gnome.org/gconf/ for information. (Details - 1: Failed to get connection to session: /usr/bin/dbus-launch terminated abnormally without any error message) If startet as a remote client, emacs should not try to connect to a configuration server. X client,X server and desktop session being on different systems is integral part of X protokol and daily working practise. Debian in general and emcas in detail should not give up this feature (being network transparent.) It is unclear, at least for me, if this missing gconf-server results in missing functionality.
