Thread: Setting system wide settings with gsettings/dconf in 11.10

hi,

in "old" days of gconf used able configure system-wide mandatory settings users command-line this:

$ gconftool-2 --direct --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory --type integer --set /apps/gnome-power-manager/timeout/sleep_computer_battery 600

doesn't work anymore in ubuntu 11.10 - because power management stores it's settings in dconf instead of gconf.

i've figured out far, can change dconf-settings command-line this:

$ gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power sleep-inactive-battery-timeout 600

... applies user logged in.

i've read dconf profiles on gnome wiki, refer /etc/dconf/... directory not present in ubuntu 11.10-installations.

know how set mandatory and/or default values command-line in oneiric?


best regards,

christian.

it seems work @ lower level. i.e. i'm not able switch user or lock screen when press buttons/menu entries both in unity , in gnome shell, don't respond.

however, - ui doesn't disappear.

, also, -- haven't seen place make permanent/mandatory yet. or, well, saw of - didn't seem work.


come closer?
