Hi...

I've implemented a custom setup in a school with xfce4 and ubuntu minimal. All panels are preset and locked, but the new users that login for the first time get asked if they wish to use the default or an empty panel.

Does anyone know how to prevent this and enforce the preset "default" panel automatically?

I have searched around ( http://mail.xfce.org/pipermail/xfce4-commits/2011-April/018751.html ) and found some info about setting a variable (XFCE_PANEL_MIGRATE_DEFAULT), but there no explanation of where to set this. Is it like a regular bash variable? Could I set it in rc.local or xinitrc?

Try setting it in the file /etc/environment. The format would be

XFCE_PANEL_MIGRATE_DEFAULT='x'(Replace 'x' with whatever it is supposed to be.)
