I have all my Compiz settings dumped to a text file which I load at login .. Created with command: $ dconf dump /org/compiz/ > ~/.compiz-settings.dconf Loaded at login with command: $ sleep 3; dconf load /org/compiz/ < ~/.compiz-settings.dconf You can make the command run at login by putting the following into an autostart file [~/.config/autostart/load-compiz-settings.desktop]: [Desktop Entry] Type=Application Exec=sh -c 'sleep 3; dconf load /org/compiz/ < ~/.compiz-settings.dconf' Hidden=false NoDisplay=false X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=true Name=Load Compiz settings The sleep is there for some reason I cannot remember, probably due to a race at login where the loaded settings would not apply properly if done too early. Make sure things are set up correctly first and that the settings have properly been set in dconf as well, before dumping. Additionally, I also lost keybindings defined in Gnome keyboard properties (control panel). To set those at startup I run the following commands in addition: dconf write /org/gnome/desktop/wm/keybindings/switch-to-workspace-1 "['<Super>j']" dconf write /org/gnome/desktop/wm/keybindings/switch-to-workspace-2 "['<Super>k']" dconf write /org/gnome/desktop/wm/keybindings/switch-to-workspace-3 "['<Super>l']" dconf write /org/gnome/desktop/wm/keybindings/switch-to-workspace-4 "['<Super>oslash']" By that time, you'll probably want to put all the mess together in a script and load that at startup through .desktop autostart mechanism above, instead. This bug is a real pain for those of us who like to customize keybindings and Compiz settings in general. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1063617 Title: 1:0.9.8+bzr3319-0ubuntu1 regression: keeps setting gsettings keys to wrong values To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/1063617/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
