Confirmed in LTS 12.04 with Classic Gnome. Even if I use (right click
/ preferences) to set the workspace swticher to 8 workspaces in 2 rows,
then next time I log in it is back to 2x2 grid with 1 workspace.
Need to set it every time I log in. Since Unity came out there has been
a drive to make it

I can confirm this is still an issue on Precise Alpha 1. The workaround
is to first log into a GNOME Shell session, have 4 workspaces open in
the workspace switcher, then log out and select Ubuntu 2D from the
LightDM session menu. (Of course, if fewer workspaces are desired, you
can also open

It doesn't appear Gnome is going to fix this anytime soon which may be too bad
for some unity-2d users
The key is currently a simple way to adjust the number of Ws's unity-2d will
use, intended or otherwise
Note on gnome bug report - Gs set the num value to however many
workspaces are open in
Reported to GNOME Shell upstream.

Added gnome-shell, remove if invalid. But if gnome-shell would stop writing to
this key then there will be no issue.
Might also affect the gnome-fallback session the same way it affects unity-2d

Thanks for the detailed analysis Doug!
So, we will have as many workspaces as GNOME Shell setup basically?
Historically I think we setup the code so that we would have as many workspaces
as a GNOME 2 use would have.

I don't know unity-2d that well, just started using but -
It appears that 2d defaults to 4 ws's and doesn't need/create that gconf key
but will use it if it happens to be there
On the other hand Gs creates the key and sets the value based on active ws's
when logging out, but does not
Finally decided to set up a new user and see what was up. Have adjusted
title and descrip. to reflect
This is caused by unity-2d using the value for num_workspaces in
~/.gconf/apps/metacity/general which is dynamically set by gnome-shell
when exited
