Bug Description

Binary package hint: emacs22

The bug 23005 for emacs21 also exists in Intrepid:

a ~5sec delay in poll on the X11 file descriptor
either removing custom-set-faces from my .emacs file or this workaround by John Steele Scott (introduced with bug 23005)

(modify-frame-parameters nil '((wait-for-wm . nil)))

solves the problem.

Concluding I may say that Metacity is a major pain in the ass.
