Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Window Buttons On The Left

5 Replies

To get the close and minimize buttons back on the right hand side do the following:

1. Press Alt + F2 and enter:

gconf-editor

2. navigate to /apps/metacity/general/button_layout

3. set the key value to:

:maximize,minimize,close

Thats it log out or restart metacity and your buttons should appear back on the right hand side.
