(gnome-terminal is the binary name to start it) Take a look at the shortcut's file, which should be one of the files in ~/.gnome2/panel2.d/default/lanchers/*.desktop, and see if perhaps there's an entry in it to minimize the window. The files seem to have rather random names. (If that's not the right location, do what I did to find my launcher: `grep -r gnome-terminal ~/.[^.]*`.) I made the launcher because I wanted a larger window, so it sets a larger size window with the command line "gnome-terminal --geometry 120x40", which might bypass that reported bug in gnome-terminal. -- ____________________________________________________________________ TonyN.:' <mailto:tonynelson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> ' <http://www.georgeanelson.com/>
