Gdk-ERROR **: The program 'gnome-terminal' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)'.
(Details: serial 267 error_code 8 request_code 149 minor_code 4)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

Thanks for the report, could you break on gdk_x_error ? please run it as :
gdb gnome-terminal
(gdb) break gdk_x_error
(gdb) run --sync
(reproduce the crash and:)
(gdb) thread apply all bt
Then attach that resulting log to the report, thanks in advance.
