Before I answer your question, a couple of points:

1) To attract people's attention, you need a good, informative title, not "bad". Most people, seeing a title like that, will just ignore it.

2) Please do not demand an answer "as soon as possible". We are all volunteers here; we have a lot of other things to do with our time.

Now for your problem. Your browser is trying to open a terminal. It has been told that the default graphical terminal on your system is xterm. However it cannot find xterm, perhaps because you do not have it installed.

Please tell us:
a) what terminal you normally use instead of xterm
b) the result of typing
Code:
echo $TERM
c) the program pointed to by /etc/alternatives/x-terminal-emulator
