[xubuntu-users] change first login (default) xubuntu desktop settings

[Kiyotaka Nemoto]

Hi Peter,

I made a blog post to answer your question.

Please see the following;

If you customize your user interface, the change will be stored under
~/.config/xfce4.

The system settings for xubuntu is under /etc/xdg/xdg-xubuntu.
So if you copy your personal customization to /etc/xdg/xdg-xubuntu, changes
will be applied system-wide.

At the same time, you need to copy some files to /etc/skel. These files are
used when new users log in for the first time.

I'm not sure if it works for your circumstance, but I hope it does.

Hope this helps,

Kiyotaka
