It just occurred to me that GNOME actually provides some ways to lock-down settings, useful for implementing kiosks or internet cafes. Guess who wrote the documentation for it? I guess we already have the internal expertise :-) http://library.gnome.org/admin/deployment-guide/ Unfortunately, the only feature useful to us seems to be blocking the panel. It would be cool if Nautilus offered an option to prevent deleting dot files. Perhaps the same could be achieved with ACLs? Or chattr -i? A smart and determined user could disable these mandatory protections, but we only need to make it fool-proof not hacker-proof! -- // Bernie Innocenti - http://codewiz.org/ \X/ Sugar Labs - http://sugarlabs.org/ _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
