Disable Gnome accessibility

See report from Miminou:

https://forum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic.php?p=172561#p172561

I have appended to /etc/profile.d/pup_gtk:

#Qt4 apps need this variable (also see Style=GTK+ in /root/.config/Trolltech.conf)...
#Qt4 note also, /root/.gtkrc-2.0 needs this line: gtk-theme-name="name of gtk theme"
export GTK2_RC_FILES=/root/.gtkrc-2.0

#20260622
#ref: https://forum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic.php?p=172561#p172561
export GTK_A11Y='none'
export GDK_BACKEND='x11'

Have not yet fixed that "(nvisuals == 1)" warning.
