[Bug 58232] Re: gnome-terminal does not start when using xinerama and nvidia

[Bryce Harrington]

Confirmed issue still exists in Feisty.  Both workarounds
(XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 gnome-terminal, and explicitly turning off
Compositing) worked.  Also, I was able to get Xinerama working with two
different nvidia video cards with the 'nv' driver.  The nv driver was
not able to activate the second monitor on a two-monitor video card,
however.

Also checked multi-gnome-term and found it fails as previous reporter
reports; I suspect this is just because MGT is derived from the same
codebase so is inheriting whatever codepath in gnome-terminal triggers
the bug.
