Since I live in Emacs, I have never encountered this problem. I will
take a look at it and get back to you.

However, I highly recommend that you put:

,----
| emacs --daemon
`----

in your "~/.profile". This will start the emacs server once in the
background when you login. You can subsequently connect to it by just
using emacsclient.
