Emacs and frames.

My partner in crime is running Tru64 5.0 with KDE and GNU Emacs 
20.6.2. When he creates a new frame (^x52) it appears to lose some of 
its state information and does not reexecute the .emacs. However, I am 
running the identical version on TRU64 4.0F which does appear to retain 
its state. The other difference is that I am still running CDE and he is 
running KDE2. 

So far we have not found a clue as to what the difference might be. We 
do have very different .emacs files. We do have the GNU Emacs books. 
My guess it is probably some variable such as "save-state-on-frame" that 
is the difference. In any case clues are welcome.
