problem starting several term in X11

For some reason when I start more than one term in X11, the new term often refuses to launch.

I'm using X11 beta3

term is launched from Application menu in X11 either by
xterm -sb &
or
xterm -sb

I may have the same problem. Does the XTerm window appear very briefly and then vanish? This happens to me and requires at least two attempts at invoking XTerm from the Applications menu for the thing to launch properly. Very annoying

Open up the console (/Applications/Utilities/Console.app) and see if there are any errors which appear when you do this.

Nope, no errors in the Console. I think it might be something to do with the Quartz-wm because changing the Window Manager solves the problem.
