Hi:
I am trying to move my minimize, cascade, and close buttons to the uppoer-right corner of a window, like Windows XP. I found this explanation and it seemed simple enough.

When I pressed Alt + F2, I did not get the same thing that popped up. Instead, I see this.

Unfortunately, there is no "Run" button visible anywhere. And when I type "gconf-editor" (without quotes) into the box and press Enter, the only thing that happens is what you see in the image above. I do not see an editor anywhere. It is as if nothing happened.
I also tried only typing "gconf" (without quotes) by itself and it just closed the without (to my knowledge, that I can see) running any program or editor at all.
Am I missing a "Run" button? How do I open the gconf editor? Why is the Run box closing when I type "gconf" and press Enter? But not closing when I type "gconf-editor"? Thanks.
