I have just built Emacs 18.57 on an Apollo DN4000 running SR10.3. I works
great, with one exception:
I am running Xapollo -K /usr/X11/lib/keyboard/keyboard.config, with DM
owns everything. I wish to run Emacs using it's interface to X. My version
of 18.55 would pop an Emacs X window when I invoked it from the DM pad.
However, 18.57 automatically puts the pad in vt100 mode, and does not
pop up an X window, regardless if I specify -display or not. I believe
I am using this switch properly:
-d displayname, -display displayname
Create the Emacs window on the display specified by
displayname. Must be the first option specified in
the command line.
If I invoke Emacs from an xterm, like this exerp from my .login:
xterm -ut -geometry 0x0-0-0 -name emacs -e emacs -w 90x50 -font 9x15 &
Emacs starts it's X window, and works fine.
Any suggestions here?
Thanks in advance,

P.S. Running exclusively X is not an option. I have many users that would
object to this.
P.P.S. Anyone know how to make the Emacs X window auto-iconify from .login?
I currently have to manually iconify it after I login.
