There is currently no easy way to standardise the complete desktop on other PC's where we lcan quickly set a standard that is quick and efficient. This includes look, feel, pager desktops, appearance, locations of Panels, Presentation of Icons...etc etc etc. If there was the ability to export all characteristics of the complete desktop, including all associated wallpapers/images into a squashed file; It would be unreal. The ability to take this file to another PC and import all the same desktop characteristics would be unreal. This would also give the very quick ability to use System Policies on a Network Drive for all PC's to inherit the moment they login where a determined - Its the perfect solution for business uniformity. I have 8PCs on my small network and I have a particular formula and look I always use and to be able to set-up 1 desktop, create the configuration squashed and import all the same characteristics on a new PC desktop- This would be unreal not to mention giving Enterprise the ability to fully implement company standards in desktop configuration. Its a bit of an ask but I have set 12.1 in the hope that the current configuration of both Yast and System Settings which are to be merged together in the Suse format of the KDE Desktop. Lets have a discussion on your thought please everyone!
