run xvt or another xterm and run gnome-terminal.  I get the following:

ken@gandalf:~$ gnome-terminal
The program 'gnome-terminal' received an X Window System error. This
probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was '202'.   (Details: serial 416 error_code 202 request_code
155 minor_code 8)   (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are
reported asynchronously;    that is, you will receive the error a while
after causing it.    To debug your program, run it with the --sync
command line   option to change this behavior. You can then get a
meaningful  backtrace from your debugger if you break on the
gdk_x_error() function.)
ken@gandalf:~$ 

I raised this and it is a known problem with unstable.  It has been for
a while.

I started using multi-gnome-terminal,  a little bit sad on the
configuration but it keeps all my terminals in tabs which I like.

I tried installing gnome2 off experimental and it would not load up yet
:-(  Surprised that this has not made it into debian proper yet.
