This looks interesting, but unfortunately you cut the message too short to know what it was saying... You might find it in /var/log/Xorg.0.log, but I wouldn't bet on that. > Is there a better way than strace to get some information on this crash? strace seems fine, just use some options to enhance the output you get: -s 1024: take 1024 bytes for every string. This wouldn't have cut that one short -tt: if you want timestamps -f: to follow forked processes I almost always call strace like this: $ strace -f -tt -s 1024 -o /tmp/strace_PROCESSNAME.$$ PIDOFTHEPROCESS Try to do it again and you might find out what gnome-terminal was trying to tell you.
