Which files in ~/
store settings for Compiz, GTK and icons?
Every new user uses files from etc\skel
. I want, when I create a new user, for that user to use my GTK theme, Compiz settings, icons and fonts by default.
OK, solved by reading manuals. .gconf, .config and .locale needed to copy to /etc/skel/
Themes and Icons stored in ~/.themes or ~/.icons cannot be shared with other users on the same computer.
To achieve theme and icon sharing you need to store them in usr/share/themes and usr/share/icons respectively.
Edited Answer (Based on Comment clarity)
To copy themes and icons here you need type gksu nautilus in Terminal
1: Right click on your Theme folder and select Properties (in your case Orta)
2: Select the Permissions Tab
3: Go to "Others" and Make sure Folder access is set to "Access Files"
4: Change File Access to Read or Read and Write
Your theme will be available to others
Your ~/.compiz folder is hidden in your Home Folder. Select ctrl-h to reveal.
Themes are stored in .themes
and compiz settings in .compiz
in your home folder.
Just copy it to the /etc/skel
folder.
The compiz settings are from 11.04 on stored in this folders:
~/.gconf/apps/compiz-1
~/.gconf/apps/compiz
~/.gconf/apps/compizconfig-1
