On another system I was allready working with 22. I did not see
differences. But offcourse it 'never' hurts to use the latest version.

I do not have the 21 version anymore, so I can not try that. But that
should not be the case. I only changed the version. My configuration
files did not change.

Then you get it yes. When starting with -q, there are the following
buffers:
    .%  *GNU Emacs*            810  Fundamental
        *scratch*              191  Lisp Interaction
      * *Messages*              81  Fundamental

It is the first buffer. But the problem is 'solved'. I copied the
configuration of the other Emacs. Now desktop save works again (it is
different in 21 and 22, the sime with hide toolbar). I closed the
buffer, that is saved, so the buffer will not show up anymore, so no
problem that it not closes automatically.
