2011-08-18 21:36:53 Doug McMahon summary If gnome-shell has been installed & logged into then only 1 workspace will be shown in Workspaces gnome-shell writes to ~/.gconf/apps/metacity/general & affects Workspaces shown in unity-2d
2011-08-18 21:40:41 Doug McMahon description I mainly use unity (3d) but have noticed that at some point when trying unity-2d I can only see/access 1 workspace from "Workspaces" I'm not currently aware what settings change(s) in unity cause the folder ~/.gconf/apps/metacity to be created though could be tracked down I don't think that having an empty %gconf.xml in the parent dir. is uncommon, but in this case is certainly the culprit. If I remove it, log out/in then all 4 workspaces show up. If I return it then, log out/in then back to 1 Currently in ~/.gconf/apps/metacity drwx------ 5 doug doug 4096 2011-08-13 22:30 . drwx------ 15 doug doug 4096 2011-08-13 22:24 .. -rw------- 1 doug doug 0 2011-08-06 21:28 %gconf.xml drwx------ 2 doug doug 4096 2011-08-13 17:17 general drwx------ 2 doug doug 4096 2011-08-13 17:10 global_keybindings drwx------ 2 doug doug 4096 2011-08-06 21:28 window_keybindings ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.10 Package: unity-2d 4.0.0-0ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.0.0-8.11-generic 3.0.1 Uname: Linux 3.0.0-8-generic i686 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia Architecture: i386 Date: Sat Aug 13 22:32:01 2011 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric Ocelot" - Alpha i386 (20110731) PackageArchitecture: all ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, user) LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: unity-2d UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) I mainly use unity (3d) but have noticed that at some point when trying unity-2d I can only see/access 1 workspace from "Workspaces" It turns out that if one logs into gnome-shell, when exiting it writes to - ~/.gconf/apps/metacity/general Typically it would do this, but the value used is based on workspaces open in GS when exiting <entry name="num_workspaces" mtime="1313702896" type="int" value="1"/> In the above case when logging into unity-2d only 1 workspace will be shown ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.10 Package: unity-2d 4.0.0-0ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.0.0-8.11-generic 3.0.1 Uname: Linux 3.0.0-8-generic i686 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia Architecture: i386 Date: Sat Aug 13 22:32:01 2011 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric Ocelot" - Alpha i386 (20110731) PackageArchitecture: all ProcEnviron:  PATH=(custom, user)  LANG=en_US.UTF-8  SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: unity-2d UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install)
