In the case of gnome-terminal, run: gdb `which gnome-terminal` You'll get a lot of messages and you may have to hit enter a few times, then you'll get a gdb prompt. Hit enter `r' there, then when gdb crashes you should get some messages. The first thing to try is running `bt' (back trace) which shows where the program crashed. Take that and either report back here or file a bug report on bugzilla.gnome.org. --Ben
