I don't know what emacs version you have, because Ubuntu Lucid does not have 23.2 only 23.1. Just try with vanilla emacs from the lucid repository, or grab 23.2 from bazaar and do an emacs -Q. The fault is probably that Emacs did not get a connection to the session manager, or that the sesison manager was restarted while Emacs was running or the connection was broken. Before logging out, check in emacs: C-h v x-session-id It is a long hex number. If it is nil, Emacs could not connect to the session-manager. After logging out, log in with a non-Gnome. non-X terminal (i.e. plain console). Check .emacs.d if you have a session.<long number> file there, it is empty. If you have such a file, check .config/gnome-session/saved-session/<ling number>.desktop. Check that the command to start emacs is correct.
