Wilson, I tried using the scripts and this is what I found:
"reset-default-desktop student1" resets the desktop of student1 to the "default" background and restores the icons for the "trash", "start here" and "home folder" after the command is executed. (this is good) It does not put the "floppy access" icon back onto the desktop.(this is not good) Everything else that was left on the desktop is still there. (this is okay) The "reset-all-desktops" seem to do the same for all of the profiles. Is there a way to run the script "and" get the floppy access icon back onto the desktop as the desktop is being restored? *note: I'm testing with K12LTSP Fedora Core-1.

It runs the reset desktop script once every morning when no one is on it. 0 3 * * * root /opt/ltsp/templates/k12linux/reset-all-desktops So, if dont feel like hacking up kde or gnome maybe it would be safe to run the script between class times. :) Im not sure what happens when you run the script when people are logged in so you might need to test it to see what it does. **************** *Crontab Format* **************** Each entry in Crontab has at least 6 fields separated by a single space.
