Hmm I added (require 'slime) and (slime-setup) to my ~/.emacs file and now when I first run emacs I get a Lisp Interaction buffer that does tabbing and things but it doesn't seem to effect the slime buffer or the buffers of lisp files I load. Thanks

I don't think I need to add that because I am on debian I think its
done for me. The file /etc/emacs/site-start.d/50slime.el seems to be for loading slime.
(let ((package-dir (concat "/usr/share/" (if (boundp 'flavor) (symbol-name flavor) "emacs") "/site-lisp/slime"))) (when (file-directory-p package-dir) (setq load-path (cons package-dir load-path))))
(setq slime-backend "/usr/share/common-lisp/source/slime/swank-loader.lisp")
(mapcar #'(lambda (fn) (autoload fn "slime" nil t)) '(slime slime-connect slime-mode))
Or do I still need to add some / all of the stuff to my ~/.emacs file?
I don't know the specifics for debian, but it looking at the code it
still doesn't call slime-setup. Maybe they left it for the ~/.emacs? I'd suggest you try it and/or ask again on the list specifying more details. I believe Peter Van Eynde is on the list and he is the debian package maintainer.
