Hey there,
I am working on changing the default TDE configuration for a Live ISO. I have read through
the:
https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/Customization_for_distributions
However, when I place my configuration files into /opt/trinity/share/config as well as
trying with my own dir added to the TDEDIRS variable. I cannot get the default settings to
apply. I can only get the new default settings to apply on the creation of a new account
using /etc/skel.
Is there a new spot for the default TDE configs? Or am I just not looking in the right
spots? Ideally when a user selects default at the bottom of a settings dialog (for the
bottom panel for example), it uses the defaults I have set.

Hi Jacob,
/opt/trinity/share/config is the TDE common location for all users. Then there is per-user
config in
~/.trinity/share/config, so if you have some customization already done for your user, it
is possible it will override
the global one.
Cheers

Unless TDE expressly removed share/config it should be there by default. It
holds the default config for most basic apps as well as for k/tdm.
There should also be a system-wide configuration directory in /etc/. I don't
have TDE running, but for KDE3 installed in /opt that is:
/etc/opt/kde3/
There you set system-wide defaults without having to change the actual K/TDE
defaults in /opt/tde/share/config. The default in /etc/ will override the /opt
defaults and local ~/.tde/share/config will override both.

No kdm or kdmrc in that tree here. I symlink /opt/kde3/share/config/kdm/ to
/etc/kde/config/.

change the actual K/TDE
defaults in /opt/tde/share/config. The default in /etc/ will override the /opt

My TDEs all have e.g. (from Leap 15.4):
# ls -gG /etc/trinity/
total 358
