Hi folks,

Re the following discussion..

changed?

You can put the buttons back where they belong yourself:
$ gconftool-2 --set --type=string /apps/metacity/general/button_layout
"menu:minimize,maximize,close"

There are even some GUI tools to do that, for example

or
<http://ubuntu-tweak.com/>

Is anyone packaging up that tool to get those buttons back where they
should be?  As in an official package available through standard repos?
