Re: [opensuse] Configuring the KDE desktop...

Hello,
I realize I can do this, but how do you configure the default desktop to be
different -- for any user that logs in?

You don't mention what version of suse you're running, so I'll assume kde3

The defaults are held in /etc/opt/kde3/share/config/, and the files in there
are used if the user hasn't done any local changes. If you want a setting to
be the default for all users, make your change to the config files there.

For the panel, the config file is kickerrc. To add konsole to it, add
something like

[ServiceButton_1]
DesktopFile[$e]=/opt/kde3/share/applications/kde/konsole.desktop
FreeSpace2=0
StorageId[$e]=kde-konsole.desktop

Or simply create a new user, configure the panel the way you want it to be,
and copy kickerrc from .kde/share/config/ in that user's home directory

Be careful though, because kickerrc for some reason also contains "recent
application" for the menu.
