Oh, that was typo. I tried both

(setq-default minibuffer-auto-raise nil)

and

(setq minibuffer-auto-raise nil)

to diable that feature in the init phase of emacs, but whenever emacs
is up, this value still has t.


I'm using GNU Emacs 22.1.1 (sparc-sun-solaris2.8, X toolkit) of
2007-06-13 on djo-sun-17 at work(built from source)
and
GNU Emacs 22.0.96.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2007-03-22 on
LENNART-69DE564 (a.k.a EmacsW32) at home

Both versions have same problem.
