Hi Martin, Thanks for the suggestion, but gnome-terminal still won’t launch. Curiously, fc-cache gives an error, although I can’t tell from the output what the problem might be. (The output is attached.) Also, if it’s helpful, it takes gnome-terminal a couple of seconds to crash when I first try to run it; afterward it fails more or less immediately. I’d guess this is related to some sort of cache? Cheers, -- Benjamin D.
