----------------------------------------------
[~mmurray] talking with snjezana the message is:
"as to gtk3, I am not sure. gtk 2 is more stable than gtk 3. However, gtk 3 is faster
and would be good to use and test it."
Unless QE comes back and says GTK3 is broken and not recommended I would say we should
just document that if your system does use GTK3 and you are seeing rendering problems
running "export SWT_GTK3=0" to disable GTK3 *might* help you but not a hard
requirement.

Project: Documentation for JBoss Tools and Developer Studio
Issue Type: Task
Components: Release Notes
Affects Versions: 4.2.0.Beta1, 4.2.0.Final
Reporter: Jiri Peterka
Assignee: Len DiMaggio
Fix For: 4.2.0.Final
There are many serious issues related to GTK3 systems (Ubuntu, Fedora and other GNU/Linux
distros). For example https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-16315 . It would be good to
mention that for OS containing GTK3 this tweak is needed to avoid these issues:
{code}
export SWT_GTK3=0
{code}
