Public bug reported: I was trying to update the workspace pages in the Ubuntu Desktop Guide for Quantal: https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/ubuntu-help/shell-workspaces.html
But I can't figure out how to change the number of workspaces. I found a schema, but maybe it really needs a schema path to be set in order for it to work? <schema id="org.compiz.core" gettext-domain="compiz"> Like this one for instance: <schema path="/org/gnome/desktop/interface/" id="org.gnome.desktop.interface"> $ gsettings set org.compiz.core vsize 3 Schema 'org.compiz.core' is relocatable (path must be specified) I even tried this: $ dconf write /org/compiz/core/vsize 3 but that didn't seem to have any useful effect.
