i am nto sure if this is it but ... i was able to get this from the messages Unable to load font -adobe-helvetica-bold-r-normal--14-140-75-75-p-82-iso8859-1 [5 times] i do not use .Xresources , nor have any font config in .emacs also reemerged emacs-cvs several times one time after upgradin portage...r5
Did you forget to update your config files to /usr/share/fonts? /etc/X11/xorg.conf, /etc/fonts/fonts.conf, /etc/fonts/local.conf
k i reemerged xorg-x11 and when it was done i had to etc-update /etc/X11/app-defaults/XTerm , but emacs has the same problem , the only thing i can think of is reeemrge emacs-cvs
i guess u could close this bug , i had to add some FontPaths and load some extra modules , took'em off one of ur developers configs :))
bug seems to no longer apply
Hi i have other emacs-cvs vs xorg-x11 problem and since this but comes up when searching for "ALL emacs xorg-x11" i'll just append. After upgrading xorg-x11 to 6.8 emacs[-cvs] doesn't recognize windows key as Meta anymore. If i fire xev i see: KeyPress event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0x2a00001, root 0xb0, subw 0x0, time 1015823, (94,151), root:(772,599), state 0x0, keycode 115 (keysym 0xffe7, Meta_L), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 0 bytes: XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes: XFilterEvent returns: False KeyRelease event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0x2a00001, root 0xb0, subw 0x0, time 1015946, (94,151), root:(772,599), state 0x40, keycode 115 (keysym 0xffe7, Meta_L), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 0 bytes: My keyboard is set up via gnome keyboard settings and it used to work in xfree86 and previous version of xorg-x11. In gnome keyboard settings i have "Meta is mapped to the left Win-key" in selected options (tab "Layout Options").
