runnodes jar throws "IOException: Cannot run program xterm"

Hi there,

I am trying to run the sample found at https://docs.corda.net/docs/corda-os/4.7/tutorial-cordapp.html

I have successfully cloned the repo and generated the nodes with ./gradlew deployNodes When attempting to java -jar runnodes.jar I get the following output:

$ java -jar runnodes.jar
