Might I ask how you have made your settings work across a > wide variety of systems? I wish I could tell you that I just did *this* [cue the magic dust!], but there is no method at work, only that I have kept tweaking* my settings, a little here, a little there, since about 2006, when I first started using KDE3. My system now looks practically identical to my system back then, except where I have changed the artwork on the desktop, etc. (See screenshots on the Trinity page where they have them posted.) Otherwise, I saved my home folder, whole and complete, copied to an external drive, then copy it to the new home folder on the next machine. The only stuff I don't keep are all the hidden files as the bottom of the home folder, as they and mostly specific to the present machine, and will need to be redone. That is about all I can say, tweak, tweak, tweak* away! Bill P.S. I mean, of course, *tweak and tweaking in the hacker sense of these words. When people heard me use those words out here in California, I discovered that they meant something quite different. The same thing, I hear, happens to the Irish when they come to over here to the States, and ask round about where they can find some really good crack. Means something different here. ____________________________________________________ tde-users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Web mail archive available at https://mail.trinitydesktop.org/mailman3/hyperkitty/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
