Hope that helps. Eduardo, I assume you did emacs –daemon and didn’t get any error, if so, the command you are looking for is: emacsclient -c

The emacs daemon instead is a headless instance of emacs, no frame. I truly suggest you give emacs23 a try, it's quite stable, and you'll be able to appreciate the difference.

What I would recommend, is to do close all your emacs instances, and then do a pkill -TERM emacs. In my case I only do this, when updating my emacs to the latest CVS version. Hope this helps.
