The argument is warning:
$ journalctl -bp warning

I only have a ~/.xsession, not .xsession-errors. journalctl -bp
requires an argument for the p option; I didn't know what to give it,
so I just said journalctl -b, searched for 'gnome-terminal', 'gnome',
and 'terminal', and basically came up empty. I'm guessing *this*,
the only result I found, is not relevant:

Mar 02 08:30:20 graton2 gnome-session[330]: WARNING: Detected that
screensaver has left the bus Mar 02 08:30:20 graton2
gnome-session[330]: CRITICAL: gsm_manager_set_phase: assertion
`GSM_IS_MANAGER (manager)' failed

Thanks anyway!

Sorry, I don't have definitive answer. You can check ~/.xession-errors and $
journalctl -bp warning for clues. (If you use GDM .xsession-errors might have
been moved recently.

That's an interesting trick.  It yields:

benfell   5248   471  0 18:11 ?00:00:00   gnome-terminal
benfell   5253  5248  0 18:11 ?00:00:00 gnome-pty-helper
benfell   5254  5248  0 18:11 pts/200:00:00 /bin/zsh

I had already checked the preferences and hard-coded the shell. And this
says it's running. So why don't I see it?

Thanks!

You can see if anything is running under the terminal with ps -AHf when
gnome-terminal is running. Check the preferences under the "Title and Command"
tab to make sure you haven't overridden your shell. You can try hard-coding your
shell there to see if that does anything.



[arch-general] Gotta be a stupid gnome-terminal problem

Hi all,

All other terminal emulators work. I have checked--thanks to what little
I found on the web that seemed apropos--to be sure that /dev/pts is
mounted (it is). But when I run gnome-terminal, I get no prompt and
typing in commands does not work.

This is a brand new installation, so I can't say it worked before some
change. All I know is it doesn't work.

What did I miss?

Thanks!
