 +===== Get rid of 'Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "overlay-scrollbar"' =====
 +
 +Searching the we led me to [[https://askubuntu.com/questions/538993/gtk-message-failed-to-load-module-overlay-scrollbar|Ask Ubuntu]]. In my case, the setting was the environment variable //GTK2_MODULES//:
 +
 +<code bash>
 +~ $ echo $GTK2_MODULES                                   
 +overlay-scrollbar
 +~ $
 +</code>
 +
 +Following the basic idea, I followed the answer linked above and found
 +
 +<code bash>
 +
 +~ $ cat /etc/X11/Xsession.d/81overlay-scrollbar
 +# This file is sourced by Xsession(5), not executed.
 +
 +if [ -z "$GTK2_MODULES" ] ; then
 +        GTK2_MODULES="overlay-scrollbar"
 +else
 +        GTK2_MODULES="$GTK2_MODULES:overlay-scrollbar"
 +fi
 +
 +export GTK2_MODULES
