Title:
Many/most changes to window manager settings are not saved between
reboots or sessions
Status in “gnome-session” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
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.
