It might help to try to narrow down the problem to one of the buffers -
starting with the org buffers to begin with.

Start nuking the buffers till you hit the problem or the problem
disappears.


OK - I hope I did what you suggested. My setup now:

a) created user foo
b) changed ownership of /home/foo recursively to me (rkrug:rkrug)
c) copied the attached .emacs file into foo's home directory
d) created directory ~foo/tmp
e) copied test.org, .emacs.desktop.error .emacs.desktop.noerror
f) 
cd ~/foo/tmp
cp -f .emacs.desktop.error .emacs.desktop
emacs -u foo
quit emacs -- question there
g) 
cp -f .emacs.desktop.noerror .emacs.desktop
emacs -u foo
quit emacs -- question not there

In the .emacs file, the load paths are set to the git version of org-mode. If I set them to 7.5, no question at all.

Hope you can reproduce it now and it helps to pinpoint the problem,

Cheers,

Rainer


It may not be buffers it could also be one of the other "states"
(whatever that means) that the desktop persists across sessions.
