[qubes-users] Re: Resizing Terminal Window inside of Kali template cloned from Debian or Kali VM causes VM crash

Adding "xterm" as a shortcut from the Apps manager also works properly.  So 
just avoid using "Terminal" from Debian VMs updated from the "stretch" repos 
and you should be fine.

UPDATE:  I was able to use the solution mentioned in a similar thread "qvm-run 
vm "xterm" --pass-io" and the resulting xterm behaves normally.  Works for me.
