About a month ago we wrote about getting all applications to use the new overlay scrollbars in Ubuntu 11.04 but now that the overlay scrollbars are default, we got an email about removing them.
So, for everyone searching for this, here's how to disable the overlay scrollbars in Ubuntu 11.04. Simply open a terminal and copy/paste the following commands:
sudo su
echo "export LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0" > /etc/X11/Xsession.d/80overlayscrollbarsThen restart your computer.
If the above solution doesn't work, you can also try removing the overlay scrollbars packages:
sudo apt-get remove overlay-scrollbar liboverlay-scrollbar-0.1-0
