This is how to get the Window Titlebar buttons in 10.04 back to where they belong:

*Install Ubuntu Tweak from http://ubuntu-tweak.com/
*Start the program from Programs/System tools
*Go to Desktop - Windows manager settings and switch it from Left to Right.

Done!

Honestly Canonical, what WERE you thinking about when you changed that?? :confused:

Or you could just do this:

1. Press ALT+F2 and type "gconf-editor".

2. Click Apps > metacity > general

3. Double click the setting, "button_layout"

4. Change value to: "menu:minimize,maximize,close" and press ok.

Effects will be immediate on any theme installed.
