the same problem.
This is the output  it  generated;

This is the output of the echo command:

mak at ubuntu:~ $ echo $GTK_RC_FILES
/etc/gtk/gtkrc:/home/mak/.gtkrc-1.2-gnome2
mak at ubuntu:~ $

I opened the .gtkrc-1.2-gnome2 file and i found the following in it:

# Autowritten by gnome-settings-daemon. Do not edit

include "/home/mak/.themes/SmoothGNOME/gtk/gtkrc"

include "/home/mak/.gtkrc.mine"

Now, i have no clue what to do.
