Then I'm afraid I cannot reproduce this.  I tried restoring my desktop
in "emacs -nw" several times, and each time I end up looking at the
same 2 buffers displayed in 2 windows one below the other.

Could you perhaps create the smallest desktop file that reproduces
this problem for you, and post it?  I'd like to experiment with it.

Thanks.
