I've been working with Ubuntu for a few months now, running it on various computers from my USB flash drive and it has worked quite well in absence of my laptop (which hasn't been working for a while). What I want to know is: When I get my laptop working again (or replace it), is there a way to take all my settings and customizations that I have set up on my USB-based Ubuntu and transfer them to a new installation on my own computer? I heard somewhere that simply transferring my entire home folder would do the trick (after installing Ubuntu on my main machine), but I figure it would be good to ask before trying anything.
