I have more information related to my problem. I hope that this will
make my problem more obvious...

When I run gnome-terminal from a standard terminal I get:

BEGIN OUTPUT
------------

----------
END OUTPUT

I guess that the problem comes from "the missing fonts", it says: Failed
to load any required font, so crash will occur..check X11 font pathes
and etc/pangox.alias file.

Is there any way I can fix that? By the way, I use the -fp option for
Xwin (Font server).
