This problem is still present in the final release of Feisty. The
workaround worked.

In Feisty I have the same problem with Nvidia/Xinerama/AMD64. The
workaround posted above (Option AddARGBGLXVisuals True) works around
the problem and gnome-terminal will start OK again.

I've just worked this problem through with a friend, and he was having
the same issue.
Adding the following entry to xorg.conf under screen fixed the problem.
Option AddARGBGLXVisuals True
Tested after a reboot and everything worked fine.
I.e.
-
Section Screen
Identifier Default
ubuntu 6.1.0 - dual monitors/video (onboard geforce6100-m9 and PCI
Radeon) xinerama and composite enabled, gnome terminal dead in the
water.
For what it's worth, PuTTy works fine :)

Confirmed issue still exists in Feisty. Both workarounds
(XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 gnome-terminal, and explicitly turning off
Compositing) worked. Also, I was able to get Xinerama working with two
different nvidia video cards with the 'nv' driver. The nv driver was
not able to activate the
I reportet the bug to nvidia but they said:
This is a known X server bug which is triggered when using Composite with
Xinerama. You should report it to Ubuntu. The current workaround is to disable
Composite or Xinerama.
This is not the answer I liked to hear. I also get the bug by using

Another workaround is to launch the terminal with the environment variable
XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS set to true:
XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 gnome-terminal
Turning composite off works for me also.

I am trying to get rdesktop working with the same symptoms, but I am
running the latest drivers from nvidia.
(II) NVIDIA dlloader X Driver 1.0-9629 Wed Nov 1 19:31:54 PST 2006
So even with the latest version of the drivers doesn't fix the problem.
Am about to try turning composite off.

I can confirm this problem using Edgy (64bit, gnome) and nvidia-glx.
I can also confirm that disabling the the work-around suggested by
jamespharaoh (disabling the composite extension) does work.
I'm going to see if I can get the latest nvidia-glx drivers installed
manually - if that solves the
I have the same problem, gnome-terminal refuses to start with Xinerama on.
Although, I am able to launch it if I set the environment variable
XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS set to true:
XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 gnome-terminal

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to reassign back to gnome-terminal, and now I
can't figure out how to undo that.

Another confirmation. Ubuntu 6.10 on x86_64 (tried with both one of the
knots and the final release) with nvidia' proprietary driver and
xinerama enabled. Some other apps fail with the same problem, like
BMPx.
Manually installing the beta of nvidia's driver (verison 9xxx) appears
to fix this
Have a look at the bug in gnome:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=354767#c5
It was closed, apparently the Composite X extension in nVidia is buggy.
That would probably explain why the bug went away when the new driver
was installed.

Disabling the composite extension fixes this for me:
Section Extensions
Option Composite false
EndSection
This is of course just a workaround...
