Hello, I realize I can do this, but how do you configure the default desktop to be different -- for any user that logs in?
You don't mention what version of suse you're running, so I'll assume kde3
The defaults are held in /etc/opt/kde3/share/config/, and the files in there are used if the user hasn't done any local changes. If you want a setting to be the default for all users, make your change to the config files there.
For the panel, the config file is kickerrc. To add konsole to it, add something like
[ServiceButton_1] DesktopFile[$e]=/opt/kde3/share/applications/kde/konsole.desktop FreeSpace2=0 StorageId[$e]=kde-konsole.desktop
Or simply create a new user, configure the panel the way you want it to be, and copy kickerrc from .kde/share/config/ in that user's home directory
Be careful though, because kickerrc for some reason also contains "recent application" for the menu.
To tell you the truth, I find that functionality to be a useful feature.
So do I, but I don't think an admin wants his own recent apps to be shown in all users' menus
Perhaps though, a bugreport should be made to KDE to suggest that the "recent applications" list be stored in its own file, so that system-wide changes can be pushed out by an admin without ruining any user's "recent applications" list.
Perhaps, but I would prefer an actual tool for setting system wide defaults. There is the kiosk tool for enabling or disabling features, but I'm not aware of anything for configuring them Perhaps it will come in KDE4.1 Now go and change that silly email address Anders -- Madness takes its toll -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
