Is there any way to reset a user's gnome profile/configuration to the gnome-wide defaults you'd have the first time that user logs in? Deleting/readding a user's profile from gnome is an acceptable solution for me, but I just don't know how to go about doing that. I've manage to screw up my tool bar, and I've also got a busy icon constantly running in the background after logging in. When I log in with a different user everything is fine, so naturally, I figure if I could just reset everything for this specific user account, things would be right as rain.

Hello Fyrie!
This solution is for Ubuntu/Gnome, but I don't see why this should not work for Fedora:

Instead of removing the files you could rename them, just to be on the safe side
Hope this help!Last edited by twn250; 7th February 2008 at 09:07 PM.
