This seems like a metacity or hardware bug to me.

Comment 2 Matt Chan 2009-07-25 00:29:28 UTC
Sorry, it probably is metacity.

I'm fairly sure it isn't hardware. This behaviour appeared when I upgraded to F11.

I have similar issue. My gnome-terminal is assigned on ctrl+alt+t. if I press shortcut on initialization gnome session, I will get 20-30 terminals.
