Looks like xemacs shipped with OpenSUSE 11.0 doesn't read the init file (.xemacs/init.el).
Of course it does: mfabian@magellan:~$ strace -f -eopen xemacs 2>&1 | grep home/mfabian open("/home/mfabian/.fonts.conf", O_RDONLY) = 6 open("/home/mfabian/bin/x86_64", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_DIRECTORY|O_CLOEXEC) = 5 open("/home/mfabian/bin", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_DIRECTORY|O_CLOEXEC) = 5 open("/home/mfabian/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/", O_RDONLY) = 5 open("/home/mfabian/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/lisp/", O_RDONLY) = 5 open("/home/mfabian/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/lisp/", O_RDONLY) = 5 open("/home/mfabian/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/lisp/", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_DIRECTORY|O_CLOEXEC) = 5 open("/home/mfabian/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/etc/", O_RDONLY) = 5 open("/home/mfabian/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/etc/", O_RDONLY) = 5 open("/home/mfabian/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/etc/", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_DIRECTORY|O_CLOEXEC) = 5 open("/home/mfabian/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/lisp/", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_DIRECTORY|O_CLOEXEC) = 6 open("/home/mfabian/.Xauthority", O_RDONLY) = 6 open("/home/mfabian/.Xdefaults-magellan", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/home/mfabian/.icons/tuxcursors/cursors/top_left_arrow", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/home/mfabian/.icons/tuxcursors/index.theme", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/home/mfabian/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/etc/", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_DIRECTORY|O_CLOEXEC) = 6 open("/home/mfabian/.icons/tuxcursors/cursors/right_ptr", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/home/mfabian/.icons/tuxcursors/index.theme", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/home/mfabian/.icons/DMZ/cursors/right_ptr", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/home/mfabian/.icons/DMZ/index.theme", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/home/mfabian/.icons/tuxcursors/cursors/watch", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/home/mfabian/.icons/tuxcursors/index.theme", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) [pid 23683] open("/home/mfabian/.fonts.conf", O_RDONLY) = 6 [pid 23684] open("/home/mfabian/.fonts.conf", O_RDONLY) = 6 [pid 23686] open("/home/mfabian/.fonts.conf", O_RDONLY) = 6 [pid 23687] open("/home/mfabian/.fonts.conf", O_RDONLY) = 6 [pid 23688] open("/home/mfabian/.fonts.conf", O_RDONLY) = 6 [pid 23689] open("/home/mfabian/.fonts.conf", O_RDONLY) = 6 [pid 23691] open("/home/mfabian/.fonts.conf", O_RDONLY) = 6 [pid 23692] open("/home/mfabian/.fonts.conf", O_RDONLY) = 6 [pid 23693] open("/home/mfabian/.fonts.conf", O_RDONLY) = 6 [pid 23694] open("/home/mfabian/.fonts.conf", O_RDONLY) = 6 [pid 23695] open("/home/mfabian/.fonts.conf", O_RDONLY) = 6 open("/home/mfabian/.xemacs/init.el", O_RDONLY) = 6 open("/home/mfabian/.xemacs/init.elc", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/home/mfabian/.xemacs/init.el", O_RDONLY) = 6 open("/home/mfabian/.xemacs/init.el", O_RDONLY) = 6 open("/home/mfabian/.xemacs/init.el", O_RDONLY) = 6 open("/home/mfabian/.xemacs/custom.el", O_RDONLY) = 7 open("/home/mfabian/.xemacs/custom.el", O_RDONLY) = 7 ^C mfabian@magellan:~$ -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I also noticed that xemacs doesn't support tabbed buffers.
It supports tabbed buffers as well. As I don’t like this feature (which is also quite buggy), I switch if off in my ~/.xemacs/custom.el. But if I start xemacs with the “-q” option (which means not to read to user configuration), it shows buffer tabs. → WORKSFORME. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I recommend to use en_US.UTF-8 instead, then it works and using an UTF-8 locale is better for many reasons.
Thanks. That works. I attempted to change the locale in the past after seeing the error from xemacs. It never worked. I must have done some typo. Anyway, Now I do get the tabbed buffers and my init file is read when xemacs comes up. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
