Bug ID: 486269
Summary: enterprise deployment Make a market for panel layout
and configuration with dolphin and other
configurations kiosk
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: master
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: myusualnickn...@gmail.com
CC: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk
Target Milestone: 1.0
I install a lot of computers with KDE/Kubuntu
I have to change many settings/selecting alternatives/ positioning panels,
configuring views for dolphin,
setting up quicklaunch with shortcuts to websites
changing settings to make the session start clean on reboot so people can clear
errors by restarting.
Basically, I'm hoping to help build a packaging for /etc/skel, adjusting many
settings all at once for many users on a system that is already deployed, and
I know KDE has immutable settings for some settings, ability to set default
settings, and such, but managing them is hard because of binary blobs in the
/home/user/.config/kde and not being able to just copy it to /etc/skel as
expected, editing config files is not fun to do repeatedly, and I would like
users to be able to select from multiple refined and considered configurations,
but mine to be the default on systems that I deploy.
I imagine the tool to be able to change their own users settings for
themselves, but a sysadmin being able to run a command line command to apply a
package to skel, and possibly set immutable settings.
This is also a key component for running kiosks, as I need to lock down many
things for kiosks, so I imagine someone to be able to manage kiosk users from
this tool.
