Description Flavio Stanchina 2009-10-01 00:36:46 UTC 
Version:           1.0 (using 4.3.1 (KDE 4.3.1), Debian packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.30.7-athlon

The default terminal emulator setting resets itself to "Use Konsole", i.e. it doesn't save the "Use a different terminal program" setting.

Steps to reproduce:

Open "Default Applications", select "Terminal Emulator" in the list at the left; by default, "Use Konsole" is selected. Select "Use a different terminal program", verify that xterm is written in the edit box, then click "Apply".

Now select a different application in the list at the left, or move to a different control panel altogether. Return to "Default Applications", select "Terminal Emulator" and "Use Konsole" is still selected.

Applications configured to run in a terminal will indeed open in Konsole.

xterm is correctly installed and configured, and will open just fine if launched from its icon or from krunner.
