Fixing the gtk error " CRITICAL **: murrine_style_draw_box: assertion `height >= -1' failed" in Ubuntu

This error is related to the gtk settings related to Ubuntu theme currently applied. I was using the theme “Radiance” and I’ve seen entries about the same error in the “Ambiance” theme. To fix this I have followed following steps,

1. open the following configuration fileas root,

   sudo emacs /usr/share/themes/Radiance/gtk-2.0/gtkrc

   Note that I have opened the file related to the “Radiance” theme. Make sure to open the correct file related to the applied theme of yours

2. Change the following,

   GtkRange::trough-under-steppers = 0

   to

   GtkRange::trough-under-steppers = 1

3. This should fix the bug.
