Robert,

I just fired up a copy of release 2.6.18 in Ubuntu 18.04.  I did notice
that there are mouse fly-over descriptions for toolbar icons.  I did not
find that option to show text with the icons, which I thought was still
there.

One other possibility would be to check out Gnome Tweaks, but I do not know
how to use them.
