I have just updated my fedora machine to 9,but some bad things happened.
I can run emacs before until i got my machine updated to fedora 9. here is the bash output:
then i use whereis command:
Yeah, i did install emacs. and even i use /usr/bin/emacs there is always the same output..
i'm sorry for my bad english.
Thanks.

Perhaps, for some strange reason, it got removed during the update process. Why don't you install it again?

edit: sorry, didn't notice the whereis command output.

You might want to remove it and install it again. It might help

Here is what i did :
it happens again.

Ok, remove it first
Then see if you've got any other version of emacs installed on the system:
if there's any other version or emacs - uninstall it. Then try to install it using yum
Why do you use an rpm package? why don't you use fedora repositories

edit: I don't know which version of emacs F9 runs, but if your concern is that it's too old, why don't you upgrade fedora to 10?

That's really a strange problem. and now i have no ideal how to fix it...


f9 uses emacs-22.2-4.fc.
he, it's limited by the network environment. last term and before, downloading rapid can be up to 1.4M/s, so even a large file like f9(3.3G) can be downloaded at an one hour. But now, it limited at 200K/s,so a half day needed to download it and what the worst is only in dark night can up to the limit(about 200k/s).
it seems i have no choice but downloading it again, and in Dark Night..

There is another reason that i have a 512M memory only.
Thanks.

Have you tried what I suggested?

Yeah, of course i did.
Thanks!
i'm downloading now.....(hope it will be finished when i get up tomorrow!)

What I meant was completely removing all versions of emacs, but then again, it's probably better if you upgrade to F10.

Thanks!
i downloaded the emacs22**.gz source packet then build it. And it Do the work!
