[Gimp-user] Can I skip the GIMP User Installation screen upon first start?
Hello Is there any way that I may set up the GIMP on a multi user Linux machine so that when a new person logs in and runs The GIMP, they do not need to go through the GIMP User Installation screen to set directories etc. I would instead like these settings to be pulled from defaults that I set myself. The reason is that inexperienced users will be using the machines and I do not want them to be encountering more screens that is required. I have tried editing various files such as /etc/gimp/2.0/gimprc but this only changes the defaults that appear for the user to accept.

AFAIK the install process just creates the .gimp-2.2 directory in the home directory of the user and stores some preferences files in there. You could try to make a template .gimp-2.2 directory - one which does not have any user dependencies and distribute this into the user directories of all users you want to use GIMP without installing it. hth, lexa Jason ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user --- Live is like a chocolate box, you never know what you wanna get...

That way all users added will automagically get the settings.. -- /Rikard - email : [EMAIL PROTECTED] web : http://www.rikjoh.com mob : +46 (0)736 19 76 25 Public PGP fingerprint 15 28 DF 78 67 98 B2 16 1F D3 FD C5 59 D4 B6 78 46 1C EE 56 ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
