changing gconf settings

["Liam O'Reilly" <liam@liamoreilly.me.uk>]

Hi all,

I have been searching how to set some gconf settings on a live cd (so that when booted the liveCD already magically has the gconf settings I want) in the proper/official way, but I have failed. Could anyone outline how I would do such a thing?

Specifically, I wish to turn off some of the power management features, namely, the dim back light settings; and change the desktop background image.

Any help would be most welcome.

Liam
