This is confusing to me: Cocoa emacs works pretty well and doesn’t need XQuartz at all. If you’re trying to run the gui over ssh X forwarding, you need to install the lucid version on the server: Debian, at least has it pre-packaged: apt install emacs-lucid should just work
i tried to install cocoa emacs but failed. cant install through brew
What exactly are you doing here?
Presumably you're running Emacs on a remote, Linux, server, and trying to display it locally using XQuartz over ssh X forwarding?
If so then the locally installed version of Emacs is irrelevant. It's not used in any way. You want to look at the version of Emacs installed on the remote server.
As u/fiddlerwoaroof said, you need to install lucid emacs on the server.
If you just want to run it locally on your Mac then forget about X, install the brew version and it'll Just Work. But it sounds like you already have that working.
Thanks, yeah, now i know the issue. i will try to get it installed on remote server.
