asked on Gconf configuration
I'd like to set some gconf preferences via cron or script. What's the best way to do this apart from making changes to the XML configuration file directly? I know /usr/bin/gconftool-2 does not work via cron (not easily anyway).
Here's an example of what I'm trying to do:
/usr/bin/gconftool-2 --type int --set /apps/gnome-power-manager/
/usr/bin/gconftool-2 --type string --set /apps/gnome-power-manager/
Any thoughts or ideas?
OS is Ubuntu squeeze/sid.
