(click to install)

Configuration of Display Recent Apps and its counterpart Display Available Apps is now available directly via the GUI application MyUnity

If you want to install unity 5.0 on 11.10:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:unity-team/staging
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

I have upgraded, works perfectly.
