I did the $ export GTK_RC_FILES=~/.gtkrc and yet I cannot see the menu items (even after a reboot). I'd like to post screenshots, but somehow the screenshot program that comes with Ubuntu refuses to work if I have any of the menus open (of course, these "menus" don't have any words in them).
Here's a message that I get when I close CDC after I open it from the terminal (this happens only when I have opened CDC from the terminal).I don't know if it has anything to do with the problem at hand, but since it contained GTK, I'll post it: 2007-01-04T22:32:44.570 Exiting ...
