There are some more files which contain possible modifications:
mce.ini for LED-Patterns
transitions.ini for menu
rx-51 for keyboard-mapping
callui.xml and systemui.xml

Hmmm, I am just going for a desktop theme package at the moment. So the rest can be considered maybe later. BTW what is callui,xml and systemui.xml?

so right now how many "desktop-hildon" themes are available for download?
Thanks. You know, I am actually wondering why nobody attempted this before. BTW this is just being developed and so at present no themes as such are present. Once development is complete, I will start a new thread to upload desktop-themes.

So, I was thinking, why not create a bunch of scripts to import/export desktop settings/arrangements. This will help people to upload their desktops and others may apply it onto their n900s like applying themes.

The way I see it, we would have to backup the following:
Wallpaper
Icon Package (Name only)
Theme (Name only)
Widget positions
QBW widgets and settings
Gonf settings like desktop numbers

So I need some help: please point out to me where these items are located. (From what I understand, QBW widgets van be backed up from /user/home/.queen_beecon)

Help me make this Idea a reality!
Couldn't we just export the conf files that "Desktop Activity" uses?

Seeing as that allows for saving presets of Desktop arrangements ect..

Yes, Desktop Activity Manager is an excellent app. But it caters mainly to restoring widgets back on the same device. So it doesn't include the settings of some widgets like for eg, QBW.

But maybe get together with the devel of that, or just look at his code, then add some stuff to his app to do the extra things

The whole point of Open Source right, improve somebodies code and add your own improvements
