I'm sure you probably already have it figured, this is what i did. I logged into my Fedora desktop as regular user; opened a Terminal; logged in as root using su -; typed dconf-editor- on dconf-editor's left pane, I just followed org -> gnome-> settings-daemon-> plugins -> xsettings submenu, then on dconf-editor's right window - I added {'Gtk/ShellsShowsAppMenu': <0>} next to overrides entry and that restored preferences within gedit,etc. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
