[ .... ]

Well, I've just got this one (or something very similar) on a recent
emacs-25 build (last update: 5cf012a3a86e700b5f229fc14d9abd1e27fdb5f4 on
Sunday 2015-11-29).

It happened on a Linux virtual terminal.  I'd recently taken the
following out of my .emacs:

    (setq desktop-restore-frames nil)

, which I originally put in in May 2014 to avoid a bug (quite possibly
this one).

I'll admit I'd been playing at switching the desktop version back and
forth between 206 and 208.  At the time of the error it was on 208.

The scenario which triggered the bug for me was:

    M-x desktop-clear
    M-x desktop-read

, and the dump I got (after enabling debug-on-error) was:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument number-or-marker-p nil)

[The following patch might help (it solves a similar problem on a Linux
 TTY), but this is unlikely:

After starting Emacs, which fails as above, could you possibly do

    M-: (frame-monitor-attributes (selected-frame))

and post the result here, please.
