Public bug reported: I have disabled the Unity global menu functionality by:
echo "export UBUNTU_MENUPROXY=0" > /etc/X11/Xsession.d/81ubuntumenuproxy and also returned the menu buttons to the right edge of my windows title bars by: gconftool-2 --set /apps/metacity/general/button_layout --type string ":minimize,maximize,close" This mostly works as desired, except that when maximising a window, the global menu *still* steals the window buttons from the now-maximised window titlebar, hiding them under it's "application name", contrary to the override. It also ignores the ordering that I have set for those buttons, and instead uses some sort of hardcoded order of "close, minimise, maximise", which is also wrong.
