Bug Description
After fresh install Xubuntu 7.04 from Alt-Install 386 CD on older hardware, launching terminal from application menu will cause xserver to crash and reload. Not entire system reboot, just xserver restart back to logon screen. I confirmed this on 5 different PC's our LUG is reworking for charity - All older machines.
Specs: (typical)
Dell P3 - 666 Mhz / 192 MB Ram / 8 MB video cards (old)
xterm does not crash when launched.
All current updates applied to 7.04. I notice this is reported in forums, and seems to be related to older-vintage hardware.

I am having the same problem on a Sony Vaio PCG-F540 with 192 MB RAM.
I just installed the latest release around May 5.
Cheers!
