removing maximize from windows

[kabukiM0n0]

Hey guys
I'm trying to remove the maximize button from the windows and I can't quite figure out how it's done.
I'm using gnome fallback. I've tried in gnome tweak, my unity, compiz (where I can't find the option) and dcomf (where its already changed too; :close, minimize. But doesn't do anything)

From the little knowledge I have .. I think I'm running on metacity - more than that I don't know...
I'm using the ambience-broken blue theme and Mirav2 for my windows.

Thank you!

You need to run gconf-editor to remove the window buttons.

It may not be installed by default and will need to download it from repository.

press alt-F2 then type in gconf-editor to run it. Cannot remember where in gconf-editor you need to edit but a simple search should find the option.

Run this in terminal to open gconf at the appropriate section...

gconf-editor /apps/metacity/general/button_layout
