    Can't run terminal after FC13 -> 14 upgrade

    So I finally, after looootttssss of trouble, got my upgraded fedora 14 partition to boot, but I find out that I had to reinstall my nvidia driver, no big deal. seemed to go ok, but now when I go applications->system tools -> terminal I get the "starting terminal" thing on the bar, and then nothing. Can't figure out whats up. Any ideas?

    I can be found either 40 miles west of Chicago, or in a galaxy far, far away.

    Well, when you upgrade to the latest bleading edge OS, expect some blood to spill... You did a system bit-image backup before you did the upgrade, right?
    Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.

    Unfortunately not. Im not sure what it is, but something clearly went wrong when I upgraded. I had to go through a lot to get thing working as they do. But I was just going to do a fresh install of fedora 14, but to my surprise when I clicked the "install to hard drive" icon, I get a message about needing to reinitialize my drive... So ill probably just end up buying a second hard drive, editing my NTFS partition to take up one whole drive, and then installing fedora on the new one. Ill probably need some help setting up grub to boot this way eventually, but ill worry about that later :P
