When starting emacs I get the following message

What needs to be done to get the permissions correct? user xpq2 gid is 1000

Have you logged in directly to this host as the user "xpq2", or SSH-ed into it, or su-ed into the xpq2 account? (And if so, did you `su xpq2` or `su - xpq2`?)

https://access.redhat.com/solutions/2094961 (account needed) indicates that it's largely ignorable in most cases and setting "export NO_AT_BRIDGE=1" in your shell environment will suppress the warning.

It's always worth searching for an error message before hitting the list ideally, and that's one of the list guidelines IIRC.
