I switched from OSX to Ubuntu Karmic a couple of months ago and I do not
regret it. Yes, it took more time to make Gnu Emacs behave is somewhat
similar fashion to Aquamacs. Yes, I think that Aquamacs is the nicest
Emacs ever produced. However, you can get close to it with Ubuntu's
emacs23 package and some .emacs adjustments.
I have never encountered this X-option message. Does it appear during
installation or when you try to run Emacs?
