I'm the developer of SSHMenu - here's my response to a similar report on SourceForge:
I don't have access to a system with the latest gnome-terminal, so remote debugging is the order of the day :-) Ultimately, all SSHMenu does is call gnome-terminal with a list of arguments. I'm guessing that the gnome-terminal segfault will be reproducible if we can directly invoke gnome-terminal with the same arguments - and thus take SSHMenu out of the equation. Looking at the commit history for gnome-terminal, it looks like command- line option handling was ported from popt to Goption in January and this may be relevant. It's also possible that gnome-terminal's valid options have changed and SSHMenu will need to be tweaked to generate command lines compatible with the new version. If a host is defined in SSHMenu with these parameters ... Title: Local Host Hostname: localhost Geometry: Profile: <None> ... then this is the command which will be run: gnome-terminal --title="Local Host" -e "sh -c \"ssh localhost\"" If the geometry is set to the top right corner then this command will be run: gnome-terminal --geometry=80x24-0+25 --title="Local Host" -e "sh -c \"ssh localhost\"" If the "Big Font" profile is selected, then this command will be run: gnome-terminal --geometry=80x24-0+25 --window-with-profile="Big Font" --title="Local Host" -e "sh -c \"ssh localhost\"" If a non-Unicode Polish locale is selected by setting: Hostname: LC_ALL="pl_PL.iso-8859-2" localhost Then this command will be run: LC_ALL="pl_PL.iso-8859-2" gnome-terminal --disable-factory --geometry=80x24-0+25 --window-with-profile="Big Font" --title="Local Host" -e "sh -c \"ssh localhost\"" Can you please try these commands and see if any of them cause the same segfault? The latest version of sshmenu.rb in subversion accepts a '-d' option which enables debugging output to STDOUT. I use it by invoking the standalone (non-applet) version of SSHMenu like this: sshmenu-gnome -d The latest version of this library is here: https://sshmenu.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/sshmenu/modules/sshmenu/trunk/lib/sshmenu.rb Let me know how you get on.
