    Hi to all,

    If I wish to setup a user's profile in a certain way (default background,
    various settings, etc) and apply those profile changes universally, how
    would I go about doing it?

    I know there's /etc/skel - and I could copy various settings into there for
    newly created users to get by default. but I don't think /etc/skel is where
    KDE keeps its default settings for users, does it?
    Would the easiest way be to just copy some settings between existing
    profiles? Does anyone have a script to do something like this that replaces
    userID's appropriately, etc?

    TIA,

    Jesse
