Comment 7 for bug 430425

I had a working terminal app until today. Yesterday it was fine. Today it became all white but all drop down menus are there, and I can change the terminal profile, but that did not help. I had changed nothing in the system. Then I played with different desktop color themes. No affect on problem. So I upgraded to V8.04 Ubuntu (Hardy Heron) from V 7, figuring that would fix it. No Luck.
