Just in case I am doing something wrong.. here is what I do.. PLEASE let
me know if I am..
this is on a debian based distro, actually kubuntu base distro..
I created a path:
/usr/share/mydistro-default-settings/kde-profile/default/share/config/
in config I have "kdeglobals"
in KDE globals I add this line:
under [KDE]
colorScheme=mydistroColours.kcsrc
of course I edit /etc/kderc and kde knows about this path:
I know cause I run:
kde-config --path config and I get
/home/user/.kde/share/config:/etc/kde3:/usr/share/mydistro-default-settings/kde-profile/default/share/config:
so what does my color scheme is not working as default in the system?
I wipe ~/.kde and when I log in it will still show the old default
scheme(the regular kde blues etc)
this is the place to ask for this.. KDE lists :-) if people don't know
here is going to be tuff to me to find out some other place... :-(
Cheers
Chris
