Some weeks ago, I have showed two small tips to tweak your Ubuntu Linux. The first one is to disable IPv6 and the second one is to reduce swapping. Today, I have another tip to make your gnome menus run faster.
1. Create a file named .gtkrc-2.0 in your home directory
cd
touch .gtkrc-2.0
echo "gtk-menu-popup-delay = 0"| tee -a .gtkrc-2.0
2. Logout and login again
I have tested with a value gtk-menu-popop-delay = 2000 before to try gtk-menu-popop-delay = 0 to see what is different in effect.

Being the complete Linux NOOB that I am, after I create a file named .gtkrc-2.0 do I then enter
cd
touch .gtkrc-2.0
echo "gtk-menu-popup-delay = 0"| tee -a .gtkrc-2.0
into a terminal all at once or one line at a time?
They are 3 separate linux commands. So, you should run one by one.
Would it not be a little easier to do:
echo "gtk-menu-popup-delay = 0" >> ~/.gtkrc-2.0
this works great, but after I restart my computer it is no longer running.
How do you make it permanent?
