Here is lts.conf
# lts.conf, provided by Edubuntu installer
# see http://edubuntu.org/documentation for more information
[default]
LDM_THEME=edubuntu
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8
LDM_LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8
LDM_DIRECTX="false"
LDM_XSESSION="gnome-session --session=ubuntu-2d"
#LDM_XSESSION="gnome-session --session=classic-gnome"
That was PERFECT timing. I was trying to remember where the config was to
change the desktop.
I was going to try out the LXDE desktop. I used it on another install and
it seems quicker.
But on that topic, do some programs work on one desktop while others won't?
We were having problems on the other install with X2Go and it worked great
on LXDE.
Also, back on Epoptes, I want to make sure ... so you are saying you can
see their screen and can broadcast to them whether they are thin or fat
right?
And thanks again for the help.
One more thing ... if I wanted the clients to boot to an Apache (localhost)
web page instead of the login how would I go about that? Any ideas?
Thanks
