I've wanted a Linux box for a while. I've not messed around with Linux in since Ibex. All of my other machines have Blu-ray drives, which makes Linux tough at best. I also dislike dual booting. I was thinking about getting another notebook to run Linux on, but since I don't use my notebook a ton, it seemed like a waste of money.

I recently built a Phenom II quad core desktop using some of the parts from my old HP desktop. I decided to use the parts from my HP to make my Linux Box, which was a much cheaper course of action. I only had to buy some memory. The specs aren't any anything special:

2.3GHz Athlon x2 BE-2400
2GB
320GB 7200RPM
GeForce 6500
DVDRW

I choose Ubuntu, mainly cause I know it better. One thing I was pleased about is I have this USB wireless card, which I use to fix other machines. The last time I had Ibex installed it was a bear to get working, but when I plugged it into Koala, it work worked right away. It was nice I didn't have to spend a good chunk of time getting it to work.

I'll probably be back with some questions, but I have a specific one right now. A while back I posted asking about getting rid of the tooltips, the text popups that occur when mouse over things. I was able to get rid of some of them using gconf editor, but was wondering whether any progress had been made on this front? I hate them in Windows too. Thanks for any help.

Zaz,

The Gnome Gconf way of turning off many of the tooltips is described in this blog post. Reading the comments further explained what you've already pointed out, while this method turns off some, it does not turn off all, (which is weird in general). Finally towards the end of the comments there is one from "Tooltipskiller" here, which describes a method for turning off all tooltips. I'm going to reword it as follows for clarity;

In order to turn off all Gnome tooltips you need to edit the gtkrc configuration file for the theme you are using. Each theme has its own gtkrc configuration file which is case sensitive, and you need to edit it by disabling tooltips in the correct section.

Find the correct gtkrc theme configuration file. You can look for the file in either of the following directories;

~/.themes/gtk-2.0/
/usr/share/themes/[themename_you_are_using]/gtk-2.0/

You could alternately locate all gtkrc files on the system by using the slocate command line program, or any other Linux global find programs.

Once you find gtkrc file in your home directory or the default gtkrc configuration file for the theme you are using, open it with your favorite editor. If the file is in your home directory you can edit it at your user account level. If you need to edit the gtkrc file in any system directory you need to do it as a root, or superuser, level, using su, sudo, or gksudo.

In the gtkrc file you will find a section titled - style "tooltips", which will contain some configuration information such as the following;

style "tooltips"
{

xthickness = 4
ythickness = 4

bg[NORMAL] = @tooltip_bg_color
fg[NORMAL] = @tooltip_fg_color
}

Add the line - gtk-enable-tooltips = 0, to this section after the end bracket {. Using our example it would be the following;

style "tooltips"
{

xthickness = 4
ythickness = 4

bg[NORMAL] = @tooltip_bg_color
fg[NORMAL] = @tooltip_fg_color
}
gtk-enable-tooltips = 0

Save the changes and reload your theme. (Or reboot).

(I guess true linux geek could probably use the sed program to add the key line above to all gtkrc files on a system in one go, but I'm not that guy..) If you don't have the relevant section in your gtkrc configuration file you can also add it. You can read about this in this Ubuntu user forum thread.

You'll have to let us know if it works. I use KDE so I can't test it myself. Also if any other Gnome users have corrections for my instructions, please feel free to add to the thread..

Good Luck..

Thanks for trying, but I'm afraid it didn't work. I was using the Dust theme and it went from being dark colored to now it looks like Windows 2000 in color. I double checked everything and it seems like I did it according to the instructions. There was no files in my .themes folder. I had to go into the /usr/share/themes/gk2.o folder. Was that correct? Thanks again.

I thought you would have the gtkrc file located in the directory;

/usr/share/themes/[themename]/gtk-2.0

like;

/usr/share/themes/Dust/gtk-2.0

but maybe it is just;

/usr/share/themes/gtk-2.0

You certainly included what looks like the complete Dust theme gtkrc in your post above. Let me know if you even have a directory called;

/usr/share/themes/Dust/gtk-2.0

with a gtkrc file in it, otherwise I will edit my instructions.

Finally I think you need to have the disable tooltip configuration line outside of the bracket configurations. Like in this one;

Did I ever tell you I love you? Once I moved it outside the bracket it worked like a charm. I didn't even have to reboot.

I hate tooltips. I think the genius who came up with them should be shot. Perhaps that's a bit harsh, maybe an award for the worst idea ever. Thanks again.

Now all the Gnomesters need to do is enable this method of turning off all tooltips from a control panel type app, rather than making someone go through the hassle of editing config files. BTW, I'm going to edit the original instructions to state looking for the gtkrc file in;

/usr/share/themes/gtk-2.0

instead of;

/usr/share/themes/[themename]/gtk-2.0

unless you tell me that you do have gtkrc files there as well..

Good Luck..

No you had it right the first time it is /usr/share/themes/ [themename]/gtk-2.0. I was confused.

I wish I could find where this is located in Windows 7. I had this little program, AlphaXP, which makes tooltips transparent, but something changed in 64 bit Vista and it hasn't worked since.
