Actually, I have a backup of the Gnome settings. It's in my backup script,
where I included it years ago. It does it like this: 

gsettings list-recursively > ...

Now I'm wondering how to restore the settings. I've read the gsettings
manpage, but it doesn't make much sense for me. Looks incomplete.

Do you know how to do it?
