Hi, The subject says it all. I'd like to copy my own custom desktop configuration for other users on the machine without having to go manually through the hassle. Here's a non-exhaustive list of what I usually tweak : * Theme + icons * background image * panel * screensaver * Nautilus behaviour * Handling of removable devices * Gnome Terminal * Gnome Dictionary (french servers) * GEdit options And so on... I used to do this before, a few years ago, when I was a Slackware user, but only with KDE (or XFCE on older hardware). Usually it boiled down to copy the relevant hidden directory trees (.kde/ or .config) to /etc/skel before creating new users. Would something similar work with GNOME? And if so, what are the relevant hidden configuration directories to copy over? Cheers, Niki
