Running Ubuntu 13.10, I cannot run emacs when sshing to my box

```
ssh -l username someipaddress

```

When I run emacs, it simply hangs. 

I have also have recently installed dbus-x11 . Before installing dbus-x11, I would get a crash when trying to run emacs. 

```

//bin/dbus-launch terminated abnormally without any error message

```

I have another ubuntu box (12.10) (vm though) running from a different provider. However I have no issues running emacs. In both cases I used apt-get to install emacs.
