I have absolutely no problems using any of these kernels with nv or
nvidia drivers with my geforce2 card... as my increasing cash pile in
vegastrike will attest.  I use gnome-terminal pretty much every second
of every day..i even launch vegastrike from it. I've seen none of your
crasher situations.

Can we please move this discussion to fedora-test-list, which is the
more appropriate forum for continued troubleshooting among testers. 
I'm more than happy to help you identify what the problem is, if its
software, via system comparison in a long thread... if we do it in the
appropriate place.
