Ah, ok. Some more questions came into my mind meanwhile (would be also interesting to hear how other people in the audience solve those). Since you use openSUSE Edu I suppose the teachers use iTALC to control the individual workstations, right? Ie monitoring what's on the screen, shutting the computers off if needed etc. Do the children have individual user accounts with their private home or do you use some shared user per workstation? How do you handle printer accounting?
