Hi Stefan,

Thank you for your reply.

However, in kubuntu, there is a file /etc/kde4rc saying

[Directories-default]

prefixes=/usr/share/kubuntu-default-settings/kde4-profile/default/

It should change the behavior of getting default from /etc/kde4 to /usr/share/kubuntu-default-settings.

Actually, when I put some configurations to /usr/share/kubuntu-default-settings it really changed the default setting. For dolphin, apps/dolphin/dolphinui.rc applied but dolphin preview settings (global/.directory) didn't.

I tried to put dolphin preview settings in /etc/kde4 it didn't work either.

Thanks,

Franklin

You should not change any defaults in /usr/share/kde4/{apps,config}, as these will be overwritten on next update.

The right place to change system default is /etc/kde4/share/{apps,config}/. Copy any relevant [Section] statemens and key=value pairs from the config file and place this new file with the same name as the original one under /etc/...

If you want this [section] or key= to be immutable, use [$i], for details google for "kde config kiosk", and read [1].

Regards,

Stefan
