The problem is the gconf variable /apps/compiz/general/screen0/options/number_of_desktops. The value from my original gconf files (which originated from dapper/feisty) was 4. In Gutsy the default is now 1.
When I change 1 to 4, the odd behavior shows up immediately. When I switch it back to 1, everything behaves as normal. -- The workplace switcher works differently between clicking on a new workspace and using Ctrl+Left or Right https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/156345 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
