Is there any particular reason for you to use xfce4 terminal? I mean, there are tons of options offering similar functionality, and they seem even more reasonable in your case as you don't use the entire xfce4 desktop...

SquirrelCZECH · 2011-12-28 12:27:21

ou, there is not

but there are two things:
A. I do not like to do not know why something do not work....
B. Can you suggest my some?

Well, as for A. I don't like it either, but sometimes it's not worth spending time on things that can be resolved in a different way.

And for B.: here you have a comprehensive list of terminal emulators. If you wish to have something with similar layout / functionality / configuration style to XFCE4 terminal, you may pick up Roxterm for example, or Terminator. I for one have been using rxvt-unicode for a very long time, but it's just one of my idiosyncrasies.

Thanks

terminator looks perfect and "first impression?" (I am not native English speaker) is a lot better than with xfce-terminal

I'm glad this wasn't closed, because I've been having an almost identical problem, where xfce4-terminal does not integrate well with Fluxbox.

My problem on the other hand is immediate when Fluxbox starts. However, a quick restart of Fluxbox solves the problem and remains solved. For the longest time I thought it was Fluxbox in general, and I checked and played around with almost all settings in ~/.fluxbox. It is in fact only a problem with xfce4-terminal.

Does anybody have any ideas?

Please don't necrobump: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fo … Bumping.27

Also, you neglected to mention what your other, immediate, problem is...

Closing.

it wasn't closed but it will be now.
