Examples for GNOME settings.

After the program gnome-tweaks
is installed

you can start it:

The following picture shows the adding of an automatic start of a terminal emulation with the program gnome-tweaks
after log in.

extensions
By default shell extensions are disabled. So first you need to allow user-extensions , before you can use it.
The appropriate command to general switch on extensions is:
$ gsettings set org.gnome.shell disable-user-extensions false
My favorite extension is 'Dash to Dock'. Fedora provides the package gnome-shell-extension-dash-to-dock
for it. By default this package is not installed with the GNOME desktop.
# dnf install -y gnome-shell-extension-dash-to-dock
login automatic
Edit the /etc/gdm/custom.conf
file and make sure that the [daemon]
section in the file specifies the following:
[daemon] AutomaticLoginEnable=True AutomaticLogin=username
