- These emacs binaries work fine when I'm sitting at the (indigo) console,
- but when I log-in via telnet using a Macintosh (which is not
- running X window) and try to use emacs, I get the message:
-
- X server not responding. Check your DISPLAY environment variable.
-
-
- So evidently I'm sposed to turn off X (?) or have some kind of emacs
- config file/command, or do I have to recompile emacs, or ???
- Thanks...
