Oh -- I figured it out. I went to 'System->Preferences->Preferred Applications->System'
and saw that my 'Terminal emulator' was 'Custom' with no command. I switched to 'gnome-terminal', and all was OK. So I guess there was maybe some change in gconf usage, probably gnome- wide (not related to gnome-panel) that caused my terminal emulator setting to get lost or something on upgrade. I have never explicitly changed this -- I've always used the default emulator on this system, which has always been gnome-terminal. -- gnome-panel launcher reports error (gutsy) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/133130 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
