[Mik Wind <evilpollo@xxxxxxxxx>]

Still no fix, or an acceptable workaround for that matter... but Ive
found some strange behaviour:

the setting for the edge bindings ( in gconf) isn't set, although it is set in CCSM :
/apps/compiz1/plugins/expo/screen0/options 

or the scale one...

also, setting it up manually using gconf it doesn't fix the problem,
however, if I open up the gconf editor, the expo edge will start working
after 10 seconds except when a windos is touching that edge, I'm
completly puzzled.

unity --replace still works, sometimes unity crashes and one needs to
run the command twice...

Title:
  Screen edge actions set in CCSM (scale/expo) don't work (sometimes) -
  Wall plugin is probably responsible

Status in Compiz:
  Fix Released
Status in Unity:
  Invalid
Status in compiz package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  PROBLEM:
  If the unityshell plugin is loaded after compiz plugins like scale or expo, those plugins will lose their "active corner" settings. The settings are still set but don't have any effect. Keyboad shortcuts are not affected.

  This looks like a problem in the unityshell plugin.

  WORKAROUND:
  Re-order the list of plugins to move expo and scale (or whatever else you use) behind unityshell.

  In 12.04 the list of plugins is found in this gconf key
  /apps/compiz-1/general/screen0/options/active_plugins

  In 12.10 it is this dconf key
  /org/compiz/profiles/unity/plugins/core/active-plugins
  ( for some with 12.10 it may be at /org/compiz/profiles/unity/plugins-with-set-keys )

  I have set expo edge to bottom right. After reboot, often this setting does not seem to work. To re-enable expo edge, I have to clear it in compizconfig settings manager and re-set it to bottom right.
