While I don't know enough about your setup to give exact answers, I suspect this might be a window-manager issue. I have Fluxbox (my window manager here) set to control the Z-depth of various windows so that some windows/apps always appear above or below other apps. I don't know if somehow you've toggled such an option for either you gvim (a "bottom layer" setting) or for your terminals (an "above normal layer" setting), but that's where I'd start looking. This might have even been changed accidentally in one or the other by a keystroke you didn't know changed the z-depth. My "keys" file in Fluxbox allows me to map a keychord to "raise" and "lower" the current window (currently Win+PgUp and Win+PgDn). You may have unknowingly hit such a keychord in your window manager. -tim
