That's nearly 100% reproducable for me, been since RHL 9/FC1'is and still present in FC3. Just open up a new gnome-terminal and hit shift- crtl-n two times, on the last tab every cell without text in it is black. IIRC the patches in this package http://fedora.laiskiainen.org/SRPMS.patches/vte-0.11.11-0.fc2.1.src.rpm made that problem disappear, along with speeding it up enormously but it's been a while and I might be wrong :-/ - Panu -
