I cannot open Lxterminal as user

Hi,

I have just installed FreeBSD amd64 with Dwm.

I install Lxterminal but I cannot start it as normal user, only as root from Xterm. I tried a different Terminal "Xfce4-Terminal" + "Evilvte" but the same thing I cannot use them as a normal user but it works fine if I'm root in xterm.

Any ideas?
 
That's the funny thing, there is no error when I type say [cmd=]lxterminal[/cmd] in xterm. It just thinks for a bit, then the screen will flicker and then it goes back to the prompt. But if I become root and type the same, lxterminal works.
 
Have a look in /var/log/Xorg.0.log and /var/log/messages. Perhaps there's an error showing up there.
 
Thanks SirDice,

There was nothing in the logs to indicate that there was an error, but I tried Gnome-terminal and that works. So I will put this down as an X-file (Mystery) and stick with Gnome-terminal.
