hardyn: Can you do the following in a desktop that works: 1. Press the right mouse button over an empty area of the top panel. A menu should appear, choose "Add to panel..." 2. Click on "Custom Application Launcher". 3. Type xterm into the Name and Command boxes. Click OK. A new icon should appear in your panel. 4. Click it and a black terminal window should appear.
Assuming this bit works, now connect up the TV-Out and repeat your original steps but this time try and use this new icon to launch a terminal. ** Changed in: gnome-terminal (Ubuntu) Status: Unconfirmed => Needs Info -- [nvidia-glx-new] Terminal will not successfully launch when SVideo is connected to TV https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/99858 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
