I just fresh installed Ubuntu 12.04 but using my old 11.10 /home partition as the /home point for the 12.04.
(update: in other words, the 12.04 applications should most likely use my old 11.10 application configurations. actually they are.)
Weird thing is, I can not seemed to change the default saved directory for gnome-screenshot. I tried to change the saved location from ~/Pictures to ~/Pictures/Screenshots at the first screenshot. But in the second screenshot, the saved directory is still ~/Picture.
Here is the gconf.xml:
petra@petra-laptop:~$ cat .gconf/apps/gnome-screenshot/%gconf.xml
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<gconf>
<entry name="last_save_directory" mtime="1335771751" type="string">
<stringvalue>file:///home/petra/Pictures/Screenshots</stringvalue>
</entry>
<entry name="border_effect" mtime="1335771746" type="string">
<stringvalue>none</stringvalue>
</entry>
<entry name="delay" mtime="1335771746" type="int" value="0"/>
<entry name="include_pointer" mtime="1335771746" type="bool" value="false"/>
<entry name="include_border" mtime="1335771746" type="bool" value="true"/>
</gconf>
The screenshot should use the last_save_directory, right?
(update: the unix timestamp shows 1335771751 which means Mon 30 Apr 2012 02:42:31 PM WIT GMT+7 few hours after I installed the 12.04, so this should means the gnome-screenshot successfully wrote the gconf.xml file)
And I also tried changing it from the CompizConfig Setting Manager, but also gives no luck.
Is there any other way to do it? (or should I report it to the Launchpad? I've never done it before, though)
update: Here's the fstab
petra@petra-laptop:~$ cat /etc/fstab

update:
I just tried capturing few screenshot and saved it to other directories instead of ~/Pictures/Screenshots. Apparently the gconf.xml wasn't updated after the latest screenshots.
