I get core dumps with error messages referencing this GTK bug:Ĭan anyone else replicate this problem or have any ideas how to resolve? wget Where gtk3 is required for xwidgets, so motif or other x-toolkits are not the best solution. with-x-toolkit=gtk3 -with-xwidgets -with-modules -with-mailutils For future reference (if anyone found a problem with X11 forwarding), my problem was that: 1. SidharthArya Was the UI smooth (or laggy) What I did. XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 emacs same result I managed to make it work (from windows using vcXsrv) although it was really slow.freshly compiled on Opensuse Leap 43.2 and CentOS 7 produces same result.I suspect this issue is related to some combination of GTK and Xming/VcXsrv, however the behavior does change between Emacs 25.3 and 26.1 RC1, see table below: | emacs | x-toolkit | result Clients are on a local Ubuntu 18.04 VM: nautilus launches fine, but VS Code or Google Chrome will hang VcXsrv. Using Windows xserver program VcXsrv (1.19.6.3). Many worked well, some are slow (acrobat reader) and Mozilla tools (Firefox and Thunderbird) cause VcXsrv to hang. TCP port 6000 has been referenced as needing inbound access. You will need to create a firewall rule to allow traffic to pass between the 2 networks while running VcXsrv. slow vim load because of clipboard and X server vim debug. Do not map the PRIMARY selection to the windows clipboard. slow vim load because of clipboard and X server vim debug.

However, when attempting to ssh -X to host via PuTTY 0.70 and launch the Emacs gui, emacs is not displaying correctly. I can compile Emacs 26.1 RC1 ok, and use it locally on the host fine.
