galapogos Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 Hi, I'm having problem with emacs on both 2009 and 2009.1. When I run emacs and it starts up, I get a big menu with the greeting Welcome to GNU Emacs, one component of the GNU/Linux operating system.To follow a link, click Mouse-1 on it, or move to it and type RET. To quit a partially entered command, type Control-g.[/qutoe] This only happens when I open a file with emacs from the command line. If I just open emacs w/o opening a file I don't get the greeting. How do I disable this greeting? Also, my mouse wheel does not seem to be working in emacs. When I scroll up and down, I get a beep and the message "C-M-( is undefined" or "C-M-) is undefined" My mouse wheel works everywhere else. How do I get the mouse wheel working? Thanks!

coverup Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 To disable the greeting message, add this line to the .emacs config file: (setq inhibit-startup-message t) For the problem with mouse, I never come across anything like that. Perhaps, you should enable scrolling via emacs options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
