Platform: SPARC Sun Solaris 8 with Sun's GNOME 2.0 distribution. I have a general question regarding the initial setup for a gnome user. How does GNOME decide what comprises a user's initial desktop? Is there a series of gconftool-2 commands issued? Or is there a series of files that just get copied in? I would like to do at least two things at my site. First is to slightly tailor a user's initial environment, to remove a couple of launchers on their top panel. Secondly, at least once a month, a user calls saying that they have accidentally deleted their top panel (the menu panel), and I'd like to be able to issue a command that creates that panel for them without them having to delete all their other customized preferences. I've been reading the GNOME 2.0 Administrator's Guide, and it seems as if these types of things are doable. However, many places through this manual the text says to see such-and-such's schemas, without really indicating how to find those schemas or talking about what to do about them once they are found. I'm hoping that someone knows perhaps of a HOWTO, or a FAQ, or a text book which might address these types of things in greater depth. -- Tcl - The glue of a new generation. <URL: http://wiki.tcl.tk/ > Larry W.
