This sounds like a known issue: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=139294 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=122815 Options include using certain Rawhide RPMs, fiddling with the terminfo database, or trying to run TERM=linux $program-name TERM=vt100 $program-name (which may turn off some of the keys). But personally, I've used Applications menu (the Start Menu-a-like) -> Preferences -> More Preferences -> Preferred Applications -> Terminal to select KDE Konsole as my preferred terminal. With a bit of fiddling, it can be made to look and feel pretty similar to gnome-terminal.
