I can confirm this: have just updated to current patches to Hardy Heron. Selecting System -> Preferences -> GL Desktop from the menu (which seems to be exactly compiz-gnome-preferences) behaves exactly as described in the original report.

This time the number of workspaces didn't change -- but I don't have compiz enabled at the moment... -- gnome-compiz-preferences type mismatch warning https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/210162 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
