Do not forget:

1. Mark this thread as solved.

2. Make a post in the other thread saying it is solved too (I am sure that you, pizzipie, know which thread).

3. Edit the other thread's new post to point it to this thread.

Or something close enough to those...

MY SOLUTION

There's many solutions, including forgetting the "Application in Terminal" altogether and just run mate-terminal with the -e option but I wanted to have my cake and eat it, too. And it's a one-time command:

Code:

sudo ln /usr/bin/mate-terminal /usr/bin/gnome-terminal

I hope this helps someone else who has a similar problem.
