I have been using emacs 21.4.1 on Debian Etch for about a year now, and have installed plenty of extra packages.
I often use tramp (2.0.54) to edit files on my desktop from my laptop.
Today I installed emacs 22.2.1 after reading good things about it.
However, whenever it starts up tramp automatically tries to connect to my desktop, and asks me for my password.
How can I stop this behaviour?
Also I am not sure about the best way to copy packages over from my emacs 21 installation to my emacs 22 installation.
Should I copy the entire contents of the site-lisp directory?
Alternatively I could alter the load-path variable in .emacs, but I think this could get a bit messy as my load-path is rather long.
Is there any way to add lots of dirs at once, or tell it to include all subdirs, or do I have to add them all one at a time with add-to-list?
I have read that some packages are not compatible with emacs 22, but I dont know which ones, is there a list anywhere?
Any help much appreciated.
