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

    Now adjusting my expectations upward for the topic based on this post, and a stop at strategicbusinessalliances continued that bar raising effect, content that resets what I think is possible on a subject is doing real work in shaping my standards and this site is providing those bar raising experiences at a notable rate during sessions.

    Now recognising the specific pleasure of reading writing that shows real care for sentence shapes, and a look at trustedenterprisealliances extended that craft pleasure, sentence level writing quality is something most blog content ignores entirely and this site has clearly invested in the prose layer alongside the substance which is rare today.

    Bookmark added in three places to make sure I do not lose the link, and a look at globalpartnershipinfrastructure got the same redundant treatment, sites I am afraid to lose are the rare keepers and this is clearly one of them based on what I have read so far across this and a couple of related posts.

    Reading this on the train into work was a better use of the commute than my usual choices, and a stop at modernbuyingstore extended that commute reading well, content that improves transit time rather than just filling it is content with practical benefit and this site has earned its place in my morning commute reading rotation.

    Top quality material, deserves more attention than it probably gets, and a look at corporatecollaborationnetwork reflected the same effort across the site, a hidden gem in the modern web where most attention goes to whoever shouts loudest rather than whoever actually delivers the best content for their readers without much marketing fanfare.

    Saving the link for sure, this one is a keeper, and a look at discoveractionableideas confirmed I should bookmark the entire site rather than just this page, the consistency across what I have seen so far suggests there is a lot more here worth coming back for soon when I have more time.

    Started thinking about my own writing differently after reading, and a look at learnandscaleintelligently continued that reflective effect, content that influences how I work rather than just informing what I know is content with the highest kind of impact and this site has triggered some of that reflective influence today on me.

    This stands out compared to similar posts I have read recently, less noise and more substance, and a look at clicktolearnstrategically kept that gap going, you can really feel the difference between content made by someone who cares versus content made to fill a publishing schedule for an algorithm trying to keep growing somehow.

    Reading this gave me a small jolt of recognition for an experience I thought was just mine, and a stop at buildyourstrategicfuture produced more such jolts, content that universalises private experiences without flattening them is doing genuinely useful work and this site is providing that recognition function for me reliably across topics I read.

    Recommended without hesitation if you care about careful coverage of this topic, and a stop at clicktoexploreideas reinforced the recommendation, the bar I set for unhesitating recommendations is fairly high and this site has cleared it through the cumulative weight of multiple consistently good pieces rather than through any single standout post which is meaningful.

    Grateful for posts like this one, they remind me there are still places online run by people who care about quality, and a look at bondedcompass reflected the same standards, you can tell the difference between content made for readers and content made just for search engines today and this is the former.

    Now thinking the topic is more interesting than I had given it credit for, and a stop at explorelongtermopportunities continued that elevated interest, content that revives my curiosity about subjects I had set aside is doing genuine work in the structure of my interests and this site is providing that revivifying effect today actually.

    Even across multiple posts the writers voice has remained consistent in a way I appreciate, and a stop at modernshoppingecosystem continued that voice, sites that maintain editorial consistency across many pieces have something most sites lack and this one has clearly worked out how to keep its voice steady across what reads as a growing archive.

    Reading this on a difficult day was a small bright spot, and a stop at globalshoppinginfrastructure 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.
