2.1.2. Default Configuration
The default panel configuration is specified in
/etc/gconf/schemas/panel-default-setup.entries. When the
panel is installed, the default configuration is loaded into the Defaults Source using the
gconftool-2 "--load" argument:
# gconftool-2 \
--config-source=xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults \
--direct --load /etc/gconf/schemas/panel-default-setup.entries
This command loads the default configuration into the /apps/panel/default_setup GConf di-
rectory.
2.1.3. Modifying the Default Configuration
Modifying the default panel configuration can be a difficult task. Unfortunately, it is also one of the
more common tasks for administrators wishing to deploy a modified desktop environment configura-
tion.
