460*** Emacs startup on GNU/Linux systems (and possibly other systems) is slow.
461
462This can happen if the system is misconfigured and Emacs can't get the
463full qualified domain name, FQDN. You should have your FQDN in the
464/etc/hosts file, something like this:
465
466127.0.0.1 localhost
467129.187.137.82 nuc04.t30.physik.tu-muenchen.de nuc04
468
469The way to set this up may vary on non-GNU systems.

471*** Visiting files in some auto-mounted directories causes Emacs to print
472`Error reading dir-locals: (file-error "Read error" "is a directory" ...'
473
474This can happen if the auto-mounter mistakenly reports that
475.dir-locals.el exists and is a directory. There is nothing Emacs can
476do about this, but you can avoid the issue by adding a suitable entry
477to the variable `locate-dominating-stop-dir-regexp'. For example, if
478the problem relates to "/smb/.dir-locals.el", set that variable
479to a new value where you replace "net\\|afs" with "net\\|afs\\|smb".
480(The default value already matches common auto-mount prefixes.)
