 Howdy,

 Can anyone tell me what the status of this thread is?

 It's an old thread, and I recall reading my copy of Linux Unleashed
 many years ago when they still mentioned fvwm. Given that I am
 disliking the direction Unity and Gnome are headed I wanted to look at
 fvwm again - but struggle with the man page.

 I think a book on fvwm would be awesome!

FVWM: Using fvwm as a lock-down kiosk

2012-03-26 Thread Raspian Belouchi
Howdy all,

I am likely going to be updating some public computers in a local
library, and have an idea that fvwm could be used to provide limited
access to running applications like a web browser, etc.

Has anyone here already done such a thing? I'm interested in knowing
how far this can be taken and if fvwm is a practical choice for this.

Thanks!
