Description of problem: When "gnome-terminal" is run while running XFCE, it minimizes to the left, making it useless. While XFCE has its own "terminal", it's missing functionality like blinking, so I'd really like to be able to run gnome-terminal instead from XFCE. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 3.0.1 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start running in XFCE mode 2. Click on Applications Menu, "Run Program", type "gnome-terminal" and press Enter. (You can also open the XFCE terminal, and type "gnome-terminal &"). Actual results: gnome-terminal starts up with a normal display, but then ON ITS OWN it keeps resizing its width (moving the right edge) until it's just wide enough to show the menu. Expected results: gnome-terminal should start up with a normal display, and not resize its width. Additional info: Edit/Profile Preferences and changing "Use custom default size" doesn't seem to help. Both GNOME 3 and XFCE environments are installed (I tried out GNOME 3, then installed and switched to XFCE); it's possible that there's some interference because BOTH are installed (though that should NOT cause this problem). Hope this helps!
I experience exactly the same thing in the same environment as Mr. Wheeler.
Same thing in KDE. One of the more strange bugs I ever have seen. gnome-terminal-3.0.1-1.fc15.x86_64
This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database. Reassigning to the new owner of this component.
This bug is still present in Fedora 16 with gnome-terminal-3.2.1-2.fc16.
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
