Dec 6, 2009I am sufferihng from two problems running emacs in Fedora 12: Firstly, whether I am logged in as root or not, starting emacs from an xterm gives me the following messages: Finished loading /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/egg/leim-list.el and load others... Loading /usr/share/emacs/23.1/leim/leim-list.el (source)... Loading /usr/share/emacs/23.1/leim/leim-list.el (source)...done Not much of a problem, but I would like to know how to prevent this.
However, if I am logged in as root, or if I use 'su -c emacs' I get an additional message and then emacs takes a long time to start up. The additional message is: socket(): Address family not supported by protocol I did not get this in Fedora 10, and it is not so much the message but more the delay of a few seconds in starting up which is annoying me.
Fedora :: Change Colour In Emacs?
Jan 28, 2011I'm trying to change the colours in emacs ( I could do with a darker background).From what I could find I have to install emacs-goodies-el.noarch, which I have done. However, M-x load-library RET color-theme RET M-x color-theme-select RET then does nothing and I cannot find a way to change the colours.looks like the instructions were wrong, it was the color theme package i need now.
View 1 Replies View RelatedFedora :: Possible To Downgrade By Installing Emacs 23.1 Rpm?
May 5, 2011I recently installed Fedora 14 in an unused partition after having used Fedora 12 for some time. I used Add/Remove Software to download and install emacs successfully. However, there appears to be a bug in this version of emacs -- the menu bar grabs focus and will not give it back without cllicking on a menu item. I find this bug very annoying and would like to scrap 23.2 in favor of another version. According to emacs bug reports, this bug has been fixed in emacs 23.3 which is available right now from the emacs home page, but only as a tarball.
How long does it usually take for a new version, such as emacs 23.3, to become available as a Fedora rpm? Would it be possible for me to downgrade by installing the emacs 23.1 rpm? If so, how do I get it? (Fedora's Add/Remove Software lists only the 23.2 version for me.)
Fedora :: Emacs And Re-mapping Ctrl To Caps?
Sep 16, 2010I have the Cap Locks key remapped as an additional Ctrl key. (I did that using the GUI System->Preference->Keyboard). This works fine all the time except when issuing one command to emacs. If I do CapLocks+Alt+ it does nothing yet Ctrl+Alt+ indents as needed. Since CapLocks should be the same as Ctrl I do not know what is causing the problem or how to solve it.

May 31, 2010I just upgraded to Fedora 13, with emacs 23.1. Now when I edit a .gpg (encrypted) file, emacs doesn't cache the passphrase, so when I save the file emacs demands that I repeat the passphrase twice.Previously, the following line in .emacs made it cache the passphrase:

View 2 Replies View RelatedFedora :: Commenting Out Block Of Code In EMacs In Python Mode
Jan 13, 2010I usually develop python code with emacs, emacs being in python code. On my desktop a version is installed and/or configured that way, so I easily can choose a region in the code and simply click on a menu option to comment out this block of code (i.e. at the begin of each line in the selected code two '##' are put). That is very convenient.
However, on my Laptop, running F12 and emacs 23.1.1, this menu option is missing! I searched within google and found the hint that by pressing 'C-c #' I also can comment out a selected region. But on my emacs it says: 'C-c # is undefined'. Am I missing something? Anyone any idea how to fix/install/update/solve this problem, so I can easily choose a couple of python lines and comment them out?
Fedora :: Emacs: Set Syntax Highlighting For Unknown File Type

Fedora :: Typing Accented Characters For Latex Directly In Emacs
Jul 28, 2010What I want is to be able to type something like "camin" (with the accented ") in Emacs, and get it to work after latexing it. An alternative would be to type "cami'on", but the first alternative would be much better.
After googling it seems that this (or at least the second option) should be possible with not much hassle, but I just can't get it to work (maybe because I haven't got much sleep last week).
Fedora X86/64bit :: Running Emacs 22.3 Under An X86_64 Running FC10 - Stops Responding ?

Fedora :: Emacs - Error "make: *** No Targets Specified And No Makefile Found. Stop"
Aug 5, 2010I recently switched over to Fedora 13 but I'm having a bit of trouble. I've tried writing simple programs in Emacs and Eclipse but neither will compile. It always gives the error, "make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop."
I've looked around at a couple of forums, but people with the same issue can't install software, but I can. I got Fedora from the Fedora website so I know its complete, but I have the sneaking suspicion that I'm just missing a file or something.
Fedora :: Schedule A Process To Start At A Specific Time (not On Start Up)?
Jan 19, 2010I'm trying to find how to schedule a process to start at a specific time (not on start up). How would I schedule a process/application to start at a specific time (if it matters, it will be a background process). For instance, have process abc start every weekday at 5am. I've done this for windows many times though have only been using linux regularly for a few months and haven't figured out the best way of doing this.
So far the best solution I have is to create a program that will start on boot and have it check the time and sleep until the required time and then start the required process(es) at the required time(s). But this seems more of a hack since I'd expect there to be a proper way of doing this.

Dec 12, 2009Just done a yum update and emacs's fonts seem very strange. Additionally all "" characters are displayed as a bizarre horizontally barred "W". Edit: I think it's nothing to do with emacs but with the fonts update. The default fonts are now "Baemuk Gulin", by changing them (SHIFT-LEFT_MOUSE) to, eg, Arial I can display things correctly. But I think the times fonts are now missing. Very strange.
