Tips for using Gnome "Registry"-gconf-editor-Linux general technology-Linux technology and application information. For more information, see the following. Windows registry is a famous thing, which everyone knows (whether it is a good name or a bad name, I will not say it ).
There is no registry in Linux, and all the settings are generally stored in ASCII-based text.. If you want to modify something, you can change it accordingly.
Gconf-editor is a software similar to the registry, but it is far simpler than modifying the Registry. Changing the settings inside is actually modifying the text files on the hard disk. The main purpose is to make some modifications to the desktop environment and some software. If you change the text one by one, it is too troublesome.
The following describes how to use gconf-editor (for example, removing the Mount drive letter on the desktop ):
Open the "configuration editor" (Chinese name) by typing gconf-editor under the terminal, and then start!
1. Remove the mounted drive letter and the "computer" icon on the desktop.
Go to "/apps/nautilus/desktop" and check "Computer_icon_visible" "Home_icon_visible" "Network_icon_visible ", in this way, three icons, "computer", "main directory", and "network server", are displayed on the desktop, and the "Volumes_visible" check box is removed, so that the mounted icons on the desktop will disappear, in the future, you need to go to the "computer" and find it!
2. Remove the "Bug report"
Sometimes in Gnome, the application will inevitably crash, and the Bug report will come out. If you find it annoying, you can use gconf-editor to remove it. Go to "/apps/bug-buddy" and check "run_on_crash" on the right side, so that it will no longer be annoying.
3. Shadow Effect
This operation allows you to use the Alt + PrintScreen key to make the image have various effects. Go to "/apps/gnome-screenshot". On the right side, change the boder_effect value. The default value is none. If it is changed to "shadow", the shadow effect is displayed. If it is black-line, there is a black line around.
The above is just a three-point discussion. gconf-editor is very good, and everyone will change it, because every key value has comments.
