X-terminal-emulator kills X

[Peter Crawford <creature.58@hotmail.com>]

 Users,

Launching X-terminal-emulator immediately 
kills X in Debian Lenny, kernel 2.6.26+17, 
Xfce4, running on an IBM NetVista 6578-RAU.  
The screen is left with a pattern reminiscent 
of cloth from a malfunctioning loom.  The 
same system on a generic PC has no such 

problem.  

Nothing I found in lists or in bugs helped.  
Any ideas?

Thanks,       ... P. Crawford
