Ive got an ATI Radeon 9250 graphics card, configured pretty much default, but with some added modelines from the Belenix CD, since I'm otherwise limited to 1024x768. Is this a known probme on this build?

Yes - it's a known problem in gnome-terminal in Nevada builds 67-69
(should be fixed in 70 I believe).   Fixes are available from the
JDS project on opensolaris - you can either install one of the
current Vermillion (JDS development branch) builds, or the set of
three gnome-terminal packages that the GNOME team posted a couple
weeks ago to solve this issue:
