Where did "Show_Advanced_Permissions" gconf-editor setting go?

  • 772

I find the default display of "Permissions" in nautilus (when viewing properties of a folder/file) difficult to use.

To solve this, I always used gconf-editor in 10.04 to change to the following: 

gconf-editor: apps > nautilus > preferences > show_advanced_permissions

enter image description here

How can I get permissions to look like above in 12.04? The gconf-editor setting is not listed under nautilus in 12.04. Has it been moved?

    Run this command in a terminal:

    gsettings set org.gnome.nautilus.extensions.preferences show-advanced-permissions true

    Or use dconf-editor Install dconf-editor:

    org > gnome > nautilus > extensions > preferences > show-advanced-permissions
