Strange message

[Dieter Britz]

I work under Kubuntu 14.04. For the first time today,
when I invoke emacs, I get a strange message. E.g.

~/Saul2/doc> ed writeup.tex &
[1] 29037
~/Saul2/doc>
** (emacs:29037): WARNING **: Couldn't register with accessibility bus:
Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application
did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply,
the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.

("ed" is my alias for emacs, and I am working in the directory
Saul2). This is not an error because emacs does start normally
just the same. The second "~/Saul2/doc>" is not from me but part
of the message.

What is this trying to tell me? I don't understand the message
content.

Didn't work. This is irritating but not fatal.

Very odd, this page shows the same solution:

http://computing.help.inf.ed.ac.uk/accessibility-bus

Are you sure you have exported that environment variable
in a way that Emacs sees?

To verify, inside Emacs do:

Esc ! echo $NO_AT_BRIDGE.

You should see the value 1.
