I've somehow goofed up my account's Cinnamon settings. (I'm using Linux Mint 13, but it's an upgrade from Mint 12, and I retained the content of my ~ directory).
Is there some set of files I can blow away, so that the next time I log into my account, I have a default Cinnamon configuration?
find/grep have been less useful than I hoped.

Create a new user, log in to that user, copy your data files from the old user then delete it.

I have LOTS of settings for programs in my home folder that I'm not willing to lose. I made a guest account and cinnamon works fine for it, but my main account gives a fatal error and logs out.
Does anyone know where the settings for cinnamon are in home?

That's it! Thanks.dalcde wrote:Try the commandafter you've logged in.Code: Select all
gsettings reset-recursively org.cinnamon
Kind of makes me miss dot files, though.
