Default Theme with cinnamon

#1 Post by nociveboy »

I'm creating a distro with some settings, to install for the college staff, because I want to promote Linux as a good option for studies, I installed some tools that we used in the course, and this will make it a lot easier.
however, I would like to leave a theme as a default for this distro, at the moment when creating a new user, the default theme is adwaita, how do I leave another theme as default?

I know that to change is easy, but I would like to leave a default theme of the system, and when creating a new user, he already had this theme, in case I will use the paper theme, thank you!

You can leave files in /etc/skel/, they will be copied over to a new user's $HOME.

Let me know what the configuration files for Cinnamon are, because I've never been able to track down all of them in my own home folder in order to reset Cinnamon to default.

Everything in your home folder? I hope there wasn't any personal information in there!
