Hello. We are running a set of web kiosks with Sun Ray Server Software. We made a set of scripts and patches to restrict user actions in kiosk session and to make user interface more clear. We are disappointed that current Gnome environment was quite hard to configure. In fact, there are several menus and options which confuse inexperienced users. We didn't find a way (without patching nautilus, gvfsd and gnome-panel) to get rid of 1) Settings menu and Preferences menu in GUI, 2) aviability of "burn://" URI and "CD/DVD Creator" menu items in nautilus. Nautilus even doesn't check aviability of "burn://" URI using have_burn_uri(), when menus are added to places sidebar, so you should patch gvfsd AND nautilus to get rid of it. So we suggest to examine the possibility of implementing more customization to Gnome GUI. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
