Hi,

In this one, I clearly recognize emacs being run inside an ascii
terminal. Ascii terminal do not have graphic possibility (nor mousse)
so it is only normal that there is no graphic splash screen.

If it is the same version of emacs that you run on the instances 2 and
3, I would look for a X issue. Do you have an environment variable set
in the xterm? In that xterm, can you launch another xterm?
