Subject: 24.3.50;
 On startup emacs frame has no minibuffer or windows decorations
Date: Thu, 20 Mar 2014 09:08:31 +0000

On starting emacs with desktop enabled the frame appears normal until
loading is complete when the window title/ iconize button etc disappears
together with the minibuffer. I have a screenshot of the frame (if
needed for clarity)

Commenting out these lines in .emacs gets rid of the problem

(desktop-save-mode 1)
(add-to-list 'desktop-globals-to-save 'compile-command)
(add-to-list 'desktop-globals-to-save 'compile-history)

though there's rather a lot of buffers created when those lines are
present!

If I create another frame that appears normal.

initial-frame-alist ;; is set to
((menu-bar-lines . 1) (background-color . "mint cream") (width . 120) (foreground-color . "DarkOrchid1") (font . "Inconsolata-12") (alpha . 90))

default-frame-alist ;; is set to 
((menu-bar-lines . 1) (background-color . "mint cream") (foreground-color . "DarkOrchid1") (font . "Inconsolata-12") (width . 80) (alpha . 90))

I did a build from bzr which produced this problem my previous build
(Dec 23rd 2013) didn't have this issue

Robert confirms that the change currently committed to the release
branch fixes the original problem (bad frames when restoring Emacs
from desktop) so I'm closing this report.

I'll do that.
