In this case, install the regular xterm or rxvt (or their
-unicode version, if you need) and use those for further
testing. Start "xterm" using Gnome's "Run..." dialog and
then start the "gnome-terminal" (I think that's the binary's
name) from within xterm. You should then be able to see
an error message.

You're probably using a recent FreeBSD 10 system, so you're
affected by the switch from sc to vt. This should help:

That's a terrible situation...
