something else unexpected has occurred.

See this: http://ubuntu-tweak.com/
Latest Version has an option to move the controls back to the right.
Another option is:

The ability to move the controls to the left may be desirable, but I now
can't see a way to access the window controls that were previously on

theres no need to change the buttons to the left until 10.10. For God's

Controls should be on the right, and Minimize button should be the left
most on of the three.
