F10 makes the "File" menu open. According to Google, either of these two methods should disable this behavior:

Method 1:
Code:
gconftool-2 --type string --set /desktop/gnome/interface/menubar_accel ""
Method 2:
Code:
echo "gtk-menu-bar-accel = \"\"" >> ~/.gtkrc-2.0
For me, only Method 1 works. I have two questions:

1. Why doesn't Method 2 work?

2. How can I get the Method 1 instruction to run automatically every time I start gnome?

Thank you,

Chris
