Learnt to do this a few days ago (btw: thanks to everybody who took
pains to explain, Kevin Krammer especially)
Two different ways.
1) Create a KDE environment as you would like it. Now copy your
kdeglobals file (~/.kde/share/config/kdeglobals IIRC) to the place where
global configuration happens. Here: /opt/kde/share/config/kdeglobals.
Thus, you create a default user setting which everyone is free to
override thereafter.
2) Use /etc/skel. Place your entire ~/.kde directory in /etc/skel, and
then add a user with /etc/skel -> man useradd explains this, you'll have
to experiment a little bit.
