OK. For me it works as follows:

. when I use /etc/skel - it does not work at all - but problem here is
that I need manually (do You know how to perform it automatically) to
change for every dir. permission as 555 while as for the files - 444.

. when I simply copy the skel contents to a user home dir. I get kdesu
trying to obtain authorization for the user from whom primarily the
files were taken - for the mentioned above only (kmix, ...).

That's my experience... :)

I can conclude w/ the following: if we want to make it simple way way
have to decide how to easily change the dir.s, subdir.s, files
permissions - then may it helps so that for the newly created user the
permissions will be set right - for the new user. But I suspect that
the info is saved somewhere in the files - the user name and therefore
the programs still will be looking for authorization - just because it
will look so as if it was intentionally customized this way.
