Patrick wrote regarding '[SLE] emacs immediately minimizes to panel' on Mon, Aug 23 at 11:30:
I've developed a weird problem over the last couple of weeks that has me stumped. If I start up emacs (using alt-f2 or desktop application icon or in terminal window) it almost always immediately minimizes down to the panel and i have to click on it down there to get it to open properly. This doesn't happen to other programs and in fact once in a while (5% of time?) emacs opens properly although I can't detect any pattern.
This problem started out of the blue and I can't figure out where to look to fix it. Could someone please point me to a config file or whatever that might be causing this?
That's the first time I can recall seeing reference to emacs "minimizing" anything... :) Anyway, in KDE 3.2, you can right click on the titlebar of the window once you have it where you want it, and in the "advanced" menu, click "store window settings". Other KDEs may be different, but Randall's reply gets you on the right track... That's likely stored somewhere in ~/.kde, but you'll probably have to do something like "grep -i -r emacs ~.kde" to find it. --Danny
