Ubuntu – How to move Chrome’s buttons to the right in Gnome3’s Shell

gnomegoogle-chromewindow-buttons

I switched from Unity to Gnome Shell in Ubuntu. Now Chrome has the buttons on the left side, but I want them on the right. How can I fix this without switching to the system titlebar?

I also tried gconf-editor and modifying apps>metacity>general>button_layout, but that doesn't make any difference.

That works for me in Gnome Shell and Chrome 15.0.874.120. Try from the command line:

gconftool-2 --set /apps/metacity/general/button_layout --type string ":minimize,maximize,close"
