Hi, This morning I tried to reinstall gnome terminal and got no dice. I wonder if something like mate-terminal might work, but not really good with advance stuff. So it is deffennetly very strange since it just stoped working rite out of the blue. Oh well.

Also having access to a command line you can install some other terminal emulator[2] to be able debug issues from your graphical environment. Running gnome-terminal from a terminal emulator (not from virtual console) should give you a pretty good idea what is going wrong.
