OK so I could narrow it down to the following: in my init.el I had this:
;; org-mode (add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/plugins/org-mode/lisp") ;; make contrib modules available (add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/plugins/org-mode/contrib/lisp" t) (setq org-directory "~/ORGA/GTD/org") ;;(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.org\\'" . org-mode)) (global-set-key "\C-cl" 'org-store-link) (global-set-key "\C-ca" 'org-agenda) (global-set-key "\C-cb" 'org-iswitchb) (global-set-key "\C-ct" 'org-toggle-timestamp-type) (setq org-default-notes-file (concat org-directory "/notes.org")) (define-key global-map "\C-cr" 'org-remember) Which works perfectly fine. In addition i have the following line right below the above: (find-file "/home/dietmarw/ORGA/GTD/org/mygtd.org") This breaks the logging funktionality. If I don't auto load the file I can open it and everything works fine. But I still like to keep it the way that my org-mode file comes up after launching emacs. Is there another way to do that that won't break org-mode time logging? /Dietmar/
