Sorry? /me switches to a console $ startx $( which galeon ) -- 1>/dev/null 2>&1 & /me diddles with galeon for a while, including several login/auth sites with popups... ...works. If you're assuming authentication at the kiosk, you can handle that through an X display manager (xdm, gdm, wdm, etc.). But Galeon runs fine naked. Personally, I'd probably pick fvwm2 for this task -- you want a powerful, configurable, window manager. With fvwm2 you've got the options to set window decorations, etc., so you're not completely bare-ass naked, but you cna also configure virtually every part of the environment so that the user is effectively locked into their sandbox.
