Re: Common GUI Config for All Users
This was my point... Mohammad WAS the only one to help and not criticize. I did not pass along the crap I got from the 'bad attitudes', like Jasper Jans, Mark Hahn, & Paul Dunne.

Re: Common GUI Config for All Users
Thank you for the =constructive= answer Mohammad. I have thusfar only received criticism for my question, with no further information, which I think is destructive to the spirit of the list, and to the culture. Those who act like pricks toward newcomers should be treated as such, and I will remember them. -- C. The best way out is always through. - Robert Frost A Servant to Servants, 1914 "Mohammad A.

Hmmm... this is the kernel list... not only the wrong place to ask UI questions, but lots of people here don't even like UIs. :) http://www.gnome.org -M - Original Message - From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, April 28, 2001 2:13 PM Subject: Common GUI Config for All Users > Looking for the best way to give all users a common desktop, which comes from one source (for easy administration). > > Found copying my /root/.gnome & .sawfish directories to a user home breaks the user's GUI, implying a symlink wouldn't work.
