I apologize in advance for my ignorance. We just switched from Fedora 8 to Fedora 15. I would like to make gnome-fallback the default desktop environment for all users. Via google I've found that:
$ gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.session session-name 'gnome-fallback'
will set it for the current user only. I've done a little reading about Gconf and gconf-tool2.
Apparently there's a way to make gconf settings default for all users, but I don't see how gconf associates to gsettings.
What am I missing?
Here's some additional information about what I'm trying to do:
I'm creating a Fedora liveCD which is stripped down for my application. The liveCD needs to come up in gnome-fallback and then every user after that to also use gnome-fallback by default.
I have a service that runs on the liveCD it can run any shell commands that are required.

Use this command (as root, from a console to avoid the per user setting):
dbus-launch gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.session session-name 'gnome-fallback'
