hi, I have xfce with all recommended packages installed.Everything works fine except for this small problem. When i open Terminal(the xfce emulator)as normal user,it shuts down immediately after starting(i.e. i only see a flash). It works fine when i open it as superuser.I know that it seems like an access priveldes problem,but so far as i can determine,it is'nt.Aterminalrc file exists in normal user's ~/.config/Terminal with the following rights: -rw-r--r-- 1 hackman 1000 2286 Apr 5 19:48 .config/Terminal/terminalrc Presently i've been working around the problem by associating the icon click with the command "Terminal --command="su - hackman" rather than just "Terminal".But this is'nt the rioght solution. The xfce forums did not have information in this particular regard.
