As for alternative terminals, rxvt-unicode-256color (actual name of the package) is a nice starting point (you can customize it via ~/.Xdefaults).

Another good alternative and more close to what I think you are used to is lxterminal, the terminal emulator from Xfce.
Then you have Konsole (KDE's terminal) and GNOME's gnome-terminal, E17's fancy term, aterm, eterm, xterm...
And finally you have Terminator - albeit I'm not sure if it's a terminal emulator by its own or it needs gnome-terminal as an underlying base.
In any case tmux+{your terminal of choice} should be a better choice.

With some desktops ALT+F2 pops up a dialog box to enter a command.

All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying
to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists.
George Orwell's '1984' was supposed to be a warning against tyranny, not
a set of instructions for supposedly democratic governments.
