Re: How to do simple desktop configs?

[Jehan Procaccia int-evry fr]

whaoo ... I see lot of skills here. Any clues about my post a day or 2 ago 
about how to centralize desktop icons, so that every user loging the 
machine gets the same icons from a central respository (something like 
/usr/share/gnome/desktop/ ...) ?

Thanks.
