I suggest (all untested): - use no window manager - start galeon in fullscreen mode from .xinitrc or .xsession - map away the F11-Key with xmodmap - maybe disable C-A-F[1-12] - maybe disable C-A-Backspace - disable most mime stuff to prevent the start of external viewers - have galeon automatically restart if it exits That should keep the system quite closed. As I didn't test that, suggestions are welcome!
