No GNOME Terminal on Jenux?

Hi,


Thanks for all this information!


Jenux doesn't use gdm at all. they run startx in the user's '.profile', 
and set the session in ~/.xinitrc', I think.  I think the gnome-terminal 
program is on the system, as my attempt to run it, from the run 
dialogue, doesn't say "command not found".



Cheers,



Dave  H.
