Greetings!
It has fallen upon me to standardize the platform used by my employer.
Previously they had been using a Debian/SID KDE combination, which was
fine, but time consuming. because of the time involved upgrading it to a
modern platform (release as Woody at the time.)
Since I have started, I adopted Kubuntu for ease of installation, up to
date packages and the interface is much less cluttered than the default
KDE installation, (who need 6 shells installed). The end-user
experience is great.
My last issue is this: I want to make a standardized desktop for new
users created ont he machines with customized icons on the desktop,
maybe in the KDE menu as well. I am trying to locate the script or
directory that KDE uses, but I am not able to locate it.
If someone could point me to a HOWTO, or give me some direction, this
would save me a lot of deployment time, as right now I have to hand
craft the standard everytime.
One other thing that would make thing easier would be a script to add a
set of printers to KDE automatically. This is less important however.
Thanks in advance,
Will
