[Bug 883744] Re: gnome-terminal does not honor the "Show menubar by default in new terminals" option

 

There is a workaround for this problem. Create a new file in
/etc/X11/Xsession.d and name it as you want, say
/etc/X11/Xsession.d/99baroslized, and write "unset UBUNTU_MENUPROXY" to
it. Unfortunately, ~/.profile is not acceptable because the variable is
set after ~/.profile is called.

In addition to the annoying bug, GNOME Terminal in Ubuntu 11.10 has two
more bugs in my experience. So I've decided to temporarily use sakura (a
terminal emulator) instead. I will report them soon.

Title:
  gnome-terminal does not honor the "Show menubar by default in new
  terminals" option

Status in “gnome-terminal” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When launched, gnome-terminal has a menu bar, even though 'Show
  menubar by default in new terminals' is clearly unchecked. I only have
  the default profile. This happens both when launching a new gnome-
  terminal from the command line, and when opening a new terminal window
  through the File menu of an existing gnome-terminal. In both cases,
  the terminal launches without the menu, but the menu flickers into
  existence after half a second or so.

  If it helps, I am on Gnome Classic (no effects), so none of that Unity
  crap for me.
