I invoke emacs with command line: $ emacs

I have this in my .Xresources

Emacs*font: -adobe-courier-medium-r-normal--24-240-75-75-m-150-iso10646-1

But the problem remains if I delete it....

I did not custom any default-frame-alist or initial-frame-alist

Absolutely no problems for displaying glyphs in the initial frame.... I
also use indic unicode glyphs without any problems. Problems occur in
the second frame (invoked with C-x 5 2)
