Your comments are confusing. First the way gconf works, the schemas apply if you have no user setting, it only sets a default value to use if there is no custom value yet. On your box with 8 desktops their is no reason the number of workspaces should change, the user settings are respected. The only upgrade case issue is if you never played with the number of workspaces and then don't have an user key for it.
About the naming, those are to gconf key too so your custom names should not be dropped and you should get your custom names again if you set the number of workspaces to 4 by example The linux version has nothing to do with the desktop and gconf, the comments about using an older version are not revelant to that bug -- [edgy] Number of workspaces / desktops reduced to 2 https://launchpad.net/bugs/60022 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
