Hi *, The problem in short: - start an X11 server with -auth (which is what most display-managers or startx do nowadays) - start `emacs --server' => `emacsclient -c' can create a new X11-frame - quit the X11 server (but leave the emacs server) - start a new X11 server with -auth => `emacsclient -c' can't create a new frame anymore I guess the problem is due to the changed authorization information (cookie). Is there a way to tell the emacs server to use new authorization data for a given display? I made a naive attempt by (setenv "XAUTHORITY" "/path/to/new/xauth-file") but this didn't work... cheers sascha -- Sascha Wilde We're Germans and we use Unix.
