I believe I am using gnome terminal. On Ubuntu Hardy,
System -> Preferences -> Main Menu
Under system tools I enabled the 'Root Terminal'
Then Under
Applications -> System Tools
I click Root Terminal. 
Then I issue the command: 
'[EMAIL PROTECTED]: /home/me# sudo su'
the prompt changes to:
'[EMAIL PROTECTED]: /home/me# [EMAIL PROTECTED]: /home/me#'
this is where when I press 'e' (actually I wanted to type 'exit') that
the terminal closes by itself.

I am a newbie so if you need some system info please tell me how to
obtain them. Thanks for the quick response although over-all my ubuntu
system is usable so it is really not a big issue. I just want to help in
my own little way.
