Changing the menu buttons positions on Ubuntu 11.10

Published by Matheus (X-warrior) Bratfisch on October 13, 2011

Hello

I’m still setting up my Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneiric Ocelot). Let’s change the menu buttons (minimize, maximize, close) position to the right (again).

Open your Terminal
$ sudo apt-get install gconf-editor

Run it
$ gconf-editor

Go to “apps/metacity/general/”
Find “button_layout” and update the value to:

menu:minimize,maximize,close

Save, logout, login. Done!

Best Regards,
Matheus

    Reading this on a difficult day was a small bright spot, and a stop at strategyexecution extended that brightness, content that improves a hard day is content that has earned a particular kind of place in my reading habits and this site is occupying that uplifting role for me today which I appreciate clearly.

    Hello there! I could have sworn I’ve been to this Web site before
    but after browsing through a few of the articles
    I realized it’s new to me. Nonetheless, I’m definitely
    delighted I came across it and I’ll be book-marking it
    and checking back frequently!

    Now placing this in the small category of sites whose updates I would actually want to know about, and a stop at progresswithintelligence confirmed that placement, the difference between sites I want to follow and sites I just consume from is real and this one has crossed into the active follow category from the casual consumption side.

    Felt the writer respected me as a reader without making a show of doing so, and a look at forwardthinkingactivated continued that quiet respect, this is the kind of small but meaningful detail that separates the sites I bookmark from the ones I close after a single skim and never return to again no matter how interesting the headline.

    Decided to write a short note to the author if there is contact info anywhere, and a stop at pearlcovemerchantgallery extended that intention, the urge to thank the writer directly is a strong signal of content quality and this site has triggered that urge in me today which is a fairly rare event for my reading.

    после вашего обращения наш врач приезжает по указанному адресу с медработниками в гражданской форме и на машине без опознавательных символов, проводит осмотр, собирает историю болезни (анамнез).
