The problem is that this affects way more than just gksu gnome-terminal. It also makes it impossible to do: $ ssh -Y jaunty_system gnome-terminal As you can see, where I may launch 12 other terminals or tabs (i.e. from the New Terminal/Tab menu options) from that one gnome-terminal, using 12 or more ssh -Y commands is simply an unacceptable work-around. I want the functionality of the gnome-terminal on the remote machine, not on my local machine. -- Cannot start gnome-terminal because of gconf error https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/328575 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
