Helpful gnome3 things

Okay, if your like me and using gnome3, but like the classic gnome2 using gnome-session-fallback. Well if your using that then the close/minimize/maximize icons are on left hand side, and as far as I know there are no GUI options to change that. Changing your theme doesnt do it either.

Anyway, just type this in console

gconftool-2 --set /apps/metacity/general/button_layout --type string "menu:minimize,maximize,close"


Other helpful things
gnome-session-properties <--- lets you set programs to autostart when gnome3 loads IE 'mutter --replace' for gnome3's compositing engine
