It would seem that there is nothing wrong with the mate-terminal itself. I would check one thing however. In the upper left there is a "Fedora" icon. I would "right click" on that and select "Edit Menus". I would then navigate to "System Tools" highlight "Mate Terminal" right click on it and display the properties and ensure it is set to just "mate-terminal" in the Command. I may even create a new menu item with the needed information and see if I can create my own menu item that works. -- If you can't laugh at yourself, others will gladly oblige. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
