I'm running Ubuntu 11.10 with Unity 2D. If I open the dconf-editor and navigate through:
org > gnome > gedit > plugins
I see a directory for plugins and the keys: drawspaces, externaltools, pythonconsole, terminal and time.
If, from a gnome-terminal, I enter the command dconf list /org/gnome/gedit/plugins/
I see the key active-plugins and the directory filebrowser.
Why don't I see the same thing with both dconf-editor and dconf list???
