Bug Description

Binary package hint: compiz

After enabling compiz, I could not run programs in a shell with Alt+F2 any more, and my custom panel starter ("offlineimap" in a terminal) does not work any more. I just get "could not start process '-e'".

This is allegedly due to compiz changing/clearing the terminal emulator gconf keys. System -> Settings -> Prefered applications -> System has an 'user defined' terminal application now, with "command" being empty and "options" being "-e".
