will be fixed with the lighdm session detection to set the right gconf path before launching the session (and fix that case in fallback mode)

Let's workaround that (and will help people still using gdm as well), in setting the unity-2d gconf settings system-wide. We just keep the metacity changes in the unity-2d session.

This bug was fixed in the package unity-2d - 3.8.10-0ubuntu1

---------------
unity-2d (3.8.10-0ubuntu1) oneiric; urgency=low

  [ Florian Boucault ]
  * debian/unity-2d-launcher.install:
    - do not install launcher/launchermenu.css anylonger as its now shipped as
      part as libunity-2d-private-qml.so using the Qt resource system
  * debian/libunity-2d-private0:
    - move symbolic link to /usr/share/backgrounds/warty-final-ubuntu.png from
      /usr/share/unity-2d/places/artwork to /usr/share/unity-2d
  * debian/control:
    - add pkg-config as a build dependency

  [ Didier Roche ]
  * New upstream release:
    - FTBFS due to erroneous check on libwnck (LP: #800550)
    - [dash] Search is slow and freezes (LP: #774569)
    - Some community lenses do not display anything - UnityHorizontalRenderer
      not implemented (LP: #790319)
    - [underthehood] the ListAggregatorModel class is not unit tested
      (LP: #794482)
    - Missing a GConf schema file for the /desktop/unity-2d/… keys
      (LP: #750303)
    - [dash] home screen search hint should be 'Search' (LP: #797825)
  * debian/unity-2d.gconf-defaults,
    debian/20_ubuntu-2d-gconf-default:
    - transition some gconf keys from session-wide to system-wide
      (LP: #797672, #797676)
  * debian/control:
    - ensure we are still using gtk2 indicator for alpha2 (LP: #804938)
    - bump standards-version
