gregmon-pterandohello03:32
LaserJockhello03:34
gregmon-pterandoI am committing one of my boxes to an ubuntu project.   Trying to decide between edubuntu and kubuntu.  Have a child...03:34
gregmon-pterando... whom we sometimes let browse the internet using a nanny software system to keep him to a set of 6-8 sites.03:35
gregmon-pterandoSo the Q is to what extent is edubuntu for kids themselves, per se, versus literal "educators" per se.03:36
Burgundaviait is for both03:36
gregmon-pterandoand then is there any log-in process (as I know Knoppix's KDE has) that could let me restrict other things he does03:36
Burgundaviait can function very well in both settings03:36
Burgundaviayou want a kiosk mode?03:36
cafuegogregmon-pterando: You cna easily enough add/remove appropriate software though. If you need website access control, you might need to run a proxy with a filter on top...03:37
gregmon-pterando(Not that computer literate) but perhaps.03:37
gregmon-pterandok03:37
LaserJockgregmon-pterando: is it mostly you using the computer or your child?03:38
gregmon-pterandoI've got one box that is 95% me alone, 5% the kid + me;    plus I'm considering putting on the laptop he uses the other ratio around.03:39
LaserJockand are you partial to a particular desktop environment like gnome or kde?03:39
gregmon-pterandoKDE.03:39
LaserJockI'd probably go Kubuntu + educational apps for yours03:40
gregmon-pterandoAlso, I have a question about sudo passwd.  Does this always work-- meaning that anyone can make up a new root password every hour?  03:40
LaserJockand Edubuntu for his03:40
gregmon-pterandok03:40
gregmon-pterandok03:40
LaserJockyou can create a user that doesn't have sudo access03:40
gregmon-pterandocool.  That's what I want.  I'm also thinking bout as the kid gets older and dodgy friends come over to the house.03:41
LaserJockyeah, KDE has a kiosk tool that would allow you to lock down you childs desktop03:42
gregmon-pterandoStill have 3:15:02 before my data backup is done, so just doing some last minute reading before committing.  03:42
gregmon-pterandoCan you say the name of it? (I'll look and see if it's on this other KDE knoppix box I'm running).03:42
LaserJockkiosktool or kiosk-tool I think03:43
LaserJock:-)03:43
Burgundaviagnome has pessulus and sabayon03:43
Burgundaviaboth are available in dapper03:43
Burgundaviawith sabayon you could create a profile with your child and then lock it down03:43
gregmon-pterandoIsn't sabayon an RR4 distro?  03:44
Burgundaviait is also that03:44
LaserJocksabayon seems really nice for Edubuntu03:45
gregmon-pterandok.   I'm anticipating that as Vista rolls around, I may have to have a word with the wifey about moving son to (*)ubuntu insteaad of upgrading, 'less she wants to pay. :)03:46
pc22is there anyone who's using microsft money on linux?03:46
LaserJockpc22: ?03:46
pc22finance software like gnucash03:47
LaserJockyeah, I was just trying to figure out the relation to Edubuntu ;-)03:47
gregmon-pterandoI'm impressed it has blender.  Know of anyone teaching kids with it, per se?03:48
pc22cos im using edubuntu03:50
pc22i dont know how?03:50
