Clicking link in Menu for Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal) or CTRL-SHIFT-N or CTRL-SHIFT-T in an existing terminal window result in a terminal window popping up *very* briefly, then crashing/disappearing. NO message, no output, no error is generated. I did have gconfd-2 crash on me earlier with the mesage "GConf error: Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. See http://projects.gnome.org/gconf/ for information. (Details - 1: Could not send message to GConf daemon: Process /usr/lib/libgconf2-4/gconfd-2 exited, reason unknown)" I had to forcibly reset the computer to get back control. I do not know if that was related to this current problem, especially since when I had that problem, all GTK apps started failing. Now, the problem appears to be confined to gnome-terminal only. - Ubuntu version: j...@vbox-ubuntu:~$ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Release: 10.04 - gnome-terminal pacakge info: j...@vbox-ubuntu:~$ apt-cache policy gnome-terminal gnome-terminal: Installed: 2.29.6-0ubuntu5 Candidate: 2.29.6-0ubuntu5 Version table: *** 2.29.6-0ubuntu5 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status Expected result: 1) A new terminal window opens.
