As a followup, the crashes (or immediate exits) listed below
apply only when the terminal program is started from a menu
or icon.  If I start it from a running terminal, there is no
problem.

Of course, that still doesn't help with KDE, since I don't
have a working terminal program there.

I checked ~/.xsession-errors for any hints.  Nothing shows up.
I don't know where else to look.

I am seeing things in ~/.xsession-errors, but they don't seem
to have anything to do with starting terminal programs.
Window manager warning: Log level 8: gtk_paint_box: assertion `style->depth == 
gdk_drawable_get_depth (window)' failed

I just installed Ubuntu/Kubuntu/Xubuntu 7.10 Gutsy.  There are problems.
Under KDE all three terminal programs listed in the menus crash immediately.
(konsole, xfce4-terminal, gnome-terminal)  I didn't try xterm because
I couldn't find it on the menus.

Also under KDE thunderbird crashes immediately.  These problems make
KDE unusable for me.

Under gnome xfce4-terminal and gnome-terminal crash immediately.
konsole functions.

I haven't tried xfce4 yet.  In the past I have discounted it because
of the challenge of watching DVDs on it.  I never figured out how.
Whereas under KDE and gnome it was straightforward.
