Bug Description
If I try to run emacs24 in Kubuntu 13.04, (KDE 4.10.0) I am finding that the GUI starts only some of the time.
If the GUI doesn't start then I will only see a process running in htop or similar.
Starting emacs in a terminal window with the -nw argument or installing the Lucid interface shows that emacs does run each time it starts so the problem is either with the Emacs GTK interface or the GTK libraries.
Emacs23 also exhibits a similar problem
