In-fact - on further testing it does not appear none of the checkboxes on that tab actually retains their correct value on a restart.

It seems more of an overall tab functional issue.

Unable to reproduce the bug on raring and quantal here. Additional user testing needed before this can be confirmed.

hmmm - interesting that you cannot reproduce this.

I've created a brand new user and this occurs still.

Just to say - by toggling the checkboxes the functionality is eventually enabled/disabled correctly - it seems to be more of a display issue on initial startup.

Any debug tracing that I can switch on for you?

I've checked out the git repo - the problem is fixed in that build.

Thus - lets wait until you guys upload a new official version so that we can close this.

It worked for me eventually when I restarted my session. I suppose the change isn't supposed to be immediate.
