Setting gconf/dconf keys in kickstart

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

Not sure if this is considered OT. If so my apologies.

I had a nicely working kickstart setup for rolling out F14 to my laptop. Even setting gconf keys worked (after many late nights fighting with it). Setting those gconf keys no longer works with F15. Does anyone have any snippets where they use gconf & dconf to tweak some GNOME 3 desktop settings?

For example, here are some snippets from the kickstart file in the %post section that do not work:

# Show weekdays in the calendar
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.calendar show-weekdate true

# Show the date in the panel
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.clock show-date true

# Enable min,max,close buttons
gconftool-2 --direct --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults --set "/desktop/gnome/shell/windows/button_layout" --type string ":minimize,maximize,close"

After the kickstart install has finished and I log in, none of these settings are active. But when I issue those commands manually as user patrick they have the desired result (only for that user).

What am I doing wrong? How can I set those keys in %post, preferably for all users?

Thanks!
Patrick
