Description of problem: Since the introduction of gnome-shell, it has been necessary to go in and disable animations in order to get rid of the slow and highly annoying animations when switching between virtual desktops. However, since the Fedora 19 migration, the animation setting is reset on every reboot :( It happens both when correcting the setting via dconf-editor and like this: dconf write /org/gnome/desktop/interface/enable-animations false Please get this fixed asap - these animations are one of the most annoying and irritating features of gnome-shell. Having them as an option for those who like this kind of glitter - fine, no problem. Forcing them upon people who are trying to use their computer, not ok! Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-shell-3.8.3-3.fc19.x86_64 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Disable window animations using command above 2. Reboot the system, login again, switch to another virtual desktop using your hot-key, like Alt-F1 3. Pull your hairs out, yell frustrated at the computer Actual results: Window animations are re-enabled Expected results: Keeping my sanity Additional info:
Hi Jes, I've searched some information about the same issue (cos it drives me crazy too) and I found this BZ https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=971677, there you can find workaround, so I suppose your BZ issue can be marked as DUPLICATE. Anyway I'm looking forward for proper fix.
Jozef, Thanks, nice to see that someone actually acknowledges this bug. Jes *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 971677 ***
