Control: reassign -1 gnome Hi,
I'm just reading through these bug reports. I always use Gnome classic, so I haven't encountered this bug myself. However, I think part of it is not a bug at all, and part of it is a bug in Gnome, not in the terminal: Gnome 3 (non-classic) has a different way of handling applications. When selecting to open an already open application, the intended behaviour is to focus that window, not to open a new one. You may not like it, but that is not a bug; it's an intentional feature. So the question is whether a terminal and a root terminal are the same application. Technically they are, intuitively they aren't. I don't know the Gnome team's opinion on the proper behaviour here. The bug is that it is different: if I read this right, then a root terminal is not considered the same thing as a terminal (so it can be opened when a terminal is open), but a terminal is the same thing as a root terminal (so it cannot be opened "normally"). One of these is a bug; the Gnome team should decide which one. But whichever it is, the bug is in Gnome, not in gnome-terminal. Thanks, Bas
