For
old users /.gconf/apps/gnome-terminal exists and it is started via

config in gnome schema for gnome-terminal.<br>

</div>This sounds like a bug in gksu, not clearing the environment properly,<br>
so the root gnome-terminal is (re)using the users session bus, where<br>
org.gnome.Terminal is already taken.<br>
<br>
If you try<br>
# unset DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS<br>
# gksu gnome-terminal<br>
<br>
does it run correctly?<br>
