I am pretty sure this is a compatibility problem with NX and the various Ubuntu versions. It is not emacs that is using the rgb.txt file, it is the nxserver I think.. And nxserver assumes that this file exists in various hardcoded locations on the system..? See http://jugboy.wordpress.com/2006/06/21/freenx-rgbtxt-configuration/
Recent NX worked ok with Hardy. With Intrepid, one had to copy an rgb.txt file to somewhere (like /etc/X11/rgb.txt) from somewhere (can't remember) (or create the corresponding sym-link) .. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/300935 . Hence, I do not think this has anything to do with Amazon ec2. Would you agree to that, zorzella? (I would think so judging from the tags you added). Also, the "Generic Event" warnings is a separate issue (which can be ignored I think). With Jaunty, I haven't yet been able to make emacs work in NX for some reason, even though I create copy rgb.txt to various places and restart the nxserver.. -- emacs broken in jaunty (and intrepid) on ec2 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/358678 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
