Moving Buttons from left to right in Ubuntu

Ubuntu now default comes with mac style layout with minimize, maximize and close buttons on the left side and it is a problem for some as they don't like this layout. So we can change them from left to right using simple steps.

Step1:-
Press Alt+F2 to open the "Run Application" Dialog box.
In that, enter gconf-editor and press enter.


Step2:-
Now a window will come up having a list of options. From that, choose Apps and expand the dropdown.
Now from the dropdown list, goto "Metacity" and then click on "general" submenu in it.
Now on right hand side, you will get the list of many options. From that, select "Button_layout".
Double click on it and change its value to "menu:minimize,maximize,close"
Now click ok.

You will see that now the buttons are placed to the right of the opened windows or applications.
