I am not sure if this is emacs problem. It looks like new version of XWin have this problem. Emacs in terminal works well. Tried to return to previous versions of X, hm it doesn't work. Now I have real problem so please if someone knows how to avoid this send message. Artur -- Artur Hefczyc[EMAIL PROTECTED] Open Source Developer http://wttools.sourceforge.net/

Does the same happen? I don't have a Linux X-server nearby, but I do have AIXWindows running nearby. I changed my DISPLAY variable and launched emacs. It popped up very quickly on the AIXWindows display (much faster than I normally see in the XWin server). However, pointer movement on the target display was sluggish, and the Win2k Task Manager says it is using upwards of 95% CPU all the time. There is definitely something wrong with emacs in X11 mode, and I think this experiment shows that it's a client-side problem, not server-side. _ The new MSN 8: advanced junk mail protection and 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail
Re: Emacs in XWin is performing oddly
Hmm... I am beginning to wonder if I built the last release with the munged binutils release that was only around for a day or two. That same release of binutils caused my class project code to segfault on startup everytime... updating to the latest bintuils cured the problem. Maybe I will make a new release soon...

Re: Emacs in XWin is performing oddly
David, Excellent. I believe I can now punt this problem over to the emacs packagers. :) Hey, are you the emacs packager for Cygwin?
