KDE & Slack 10.2


Well i made the mistake of getting KDE all setup the way i like it, but for the root user and i, for obvious reasons, do not want to login as root all the time... is there a way to copy the profile over to another user that is in the admin group?

Copy ~/.kde and ~/.kderc to the home directory of the person you want to have those settings. Make sure you change the owner and group permissions of all the files in .kde and the .kderc file. If you have tinkered with the kmenu, then you may also have to copy ~/.local and ~/.config.
