For anyone still a little foggy on how to fix this, especially beginners, here
is a link to another way to do this:

Basically you can just issue this command: sudo nvidia-xconfig
--add-argb-glx-visuals
which will add the appropriate line (O

I disabled composite correctly and g-t starts working correctly when xinerama
is running.
THANKS!

I followed the above and gnome-terminal will still not start, except by
using the script provided above.
I am using a nvidia 6600 GT and AMD64.

This probably reflects a bug in the program.

This bug also causes some unusual behaviour with other Gnome
applications, most notably gnome-settings-daemon. In my case, pressing
the volume multimedia buttons on my keyboard was causing gnome-settings-
daemon to crash in combination with Xinerama and nVidia drivers. The

Here's a slight modification to the script provided by Michael Wood.
This new version launches gnome-terminal through exec, this way the
process of the shell script gets replaced by the process of gnome-
terminal instead of laying around in the system process table waiting
for gnome-terminal to end
Here is script to be used as a launcher for gnome terminal for people
with this issue.

I can confirm this problem using Edgy (64bit, gnome) and nvidia-glx.
I can also confirm that disabling the the work-around suggested by

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:

Option "Composite" "false"
EndSection
This is of course just a workaround...
