Subject: Problems with *-frame-alist
Date: Tue, 13 Jul 2010 11:44:19 +0200

Package: Emacs
Version: 24.0.50

Try a .emacs of:

   (setq minibuffer-frame-alist '((minibuffer . only)))
   (setq initial-frame-alist minibuffer-frame-alist)
   (setq default-frame-alist '((minibuffer . nil)))

and then just run "emacs".  You won't get the minibuffer-only frame
that you got with Emacs-23.
