For what it's worth, I have this in my .emacs file to work around the issue of Emacs starting up the wrong size:
``` ;; https://bugs.launchpad.net/emacs/+bug/2011244 (defun fix-frame-size (&optional frame) (when (window-system) (if (not frame) (setq frame (car (frame-list)))) (let ((width (frame-width frame))) (if (< width 80) (progn (message "Fixing frame %s size from %d" frame width) (set-frame-size frame 80 35)) (message "Size of frame %s, %d, is fine, not fixing" frame width))))) (defun delayed-fix-frame-size (frame) ;; The frame resize sometimes doesn't work immediately after the frame is ;; opened. Might have to experiment with the delay to make sure it's long ;; enough. (run-at-time 0.25 nil 'fix-frame-size frame)) (add-hook 'after-make-frame-functions 'delayed-fix-frame-size 100) (fix-frame-size) ``` -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2011244 Title: emacs launching in GNOME is all messed up To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/emacs/+bug/2011244/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
