Hi Johan,

If you go to the applications menu > run application

type in gnome-terminal > run

what happens?

Same problem. Eventually I remembered that terminal complained....

gkrellm: Exiting because multiple instances option is off.

so I activated multiple instances but did not realise that now there is
a problem.
Now I de-activated multiple instances .. still pop-up to allow you to
choose which type of terminal you want to run and then there it is.
Thanks for your response.
Johan
