And DRIVES ME CRAZY. How do you open the second terminator instance? ctrl+shift+i ? I'm afraid I can't reproduce this. Can you try my new upload (to hit mirrors in a few hours) 1.90+bzr-1705-1 and see if it still happens? If it does, can you try with a different window manager to make sure this isn't IceWM specific?
