I recently did a fresh install of Ubuntu onto new disk partitions. So, my old 12.04 installation, which I had been upgrading since Beta1, was "extra". I decided to use it to take XFCE for a spin.
I encountered a big problem from the beginning. When I open an Xterm session, either by right clicking on the desktop or by selecting from the main menu, it opens but it has no prompt nor can I type anything into it. I can resize it, close it, maximize it, etc. I just cannot type commands into it. It is not a keyboard problem, because I am typing this into Firefox right now.
Has anyone seen this before and does anyone know how to fix it?
