20 If you recall how to get kcontrol to set them, I would appreciate it. I
21 use neither Gnome nor KDE, so I'm not sure where to look to change the

24 It looks like gconftool-2 might do what I need, but it's CLI and I'm not
25 sure what options or paths I should be sending to it. I'm guessing this
26 means that any gtk apps I have are now broken... :(
