You have been subscribed to a public bug:
I am running ubuntu 12.10 in fallback mode, and using both the "System
Settings..." app and gnome-tweak-tool to change some keyboard shortcuts,
window manager bahavior, and applet behavior. Some of these changes
never take effect, and some others take effect immediately, but are lost
after a reboot or after logging out and back in again.
The only information that I've found suggests that some of these
customization apps are not totally bug-free in the version of Gnome used
in 12.10. I'd consider downgrading to 12.04 if it were more stable.
The following is not related to the bug, but reflects my perspective, so
ignore if you wish: This is my first ever installation of ubuntu after
almost a decade on Fedora. What drove me away from Fedora was this very
same thing: an upgrade to Gnome 3 forced me to begin using fallback mode
in order to stay productive, and in fallback mode the customization apps
were buggy and/or unable to re-customize my environment.
