Lightbulb exporting/importing desktop settings


Hey everybody,

Does anyone know if there is a way to export desktop settings such as toolbars configuration, baground etc. from Fedora 7, and of course, import it back to new Fedora 8. Any ideas? I tried to google but no luck. Thanks

Hi.

All the settings are in $HOME/.gconf/desktop . Just copy that directory over, and you should be good to go.
