Re: Noob
hi there,
I found this article about compiz window manager when searching for
you, I hope it will be of some assistence?
when ubuntu installs there system, files from /etc/skell are coppied
to the user directory of the user being created,
so, any files changed in /etc/skell will move over to the
/home/username profile.
I hope this makes sence?
