Solaris444hi fellas.07:23
Solaris444I was just wondering if Canonical offers support for edubuntu?07:23
Solaris444as in professional support.07:23

BHSPitLappyI asked this earlier, but...07:38
BHSPitLappywe have a ubuntu desktop here at home, and I was wondering if it would be doable to have the edubuntu environment going for a particular user07:38
BHSPitLappybut not all07:38
pipedreamI did an aptitude install edubuntu-desktop, I think back in dapper07:39
pipedreamIt changed default fonts for ubuntu-desktop users, and theme, and so on07:39
BHSPitLappyI don't really want things like the usplash and other artwork getting replaced07:39
pipedreamIt didn't have a separate session to choose from on the login screen (both are gnome)07:40
BHSPitLappyso my question was a pipedream, basically?07:40
pipedreamedubuntu should have a session choosable at the login07:40
pipedreamBHSPitLappy: dunno if it has been fixed, changed, or if it is possible07:40
pipedreamBHSPitLappy: wait around here and see if someone answers07:40
BHSPitLappyI might test that on a livecd07:40
pipedreamBHSPitLappy: you can reverse theme/usplash changes, and have the user set them personally again (not usplash, theme and menu and artwork, I guess)07:41
pipedreambut it's not nicely separated07:41
pipedreamthen again, isn't one-click patented?07:41
pipedreamha07:41
BHSPitLappyperhaps in synaptic, I could have it checkmark the packages deps07:41
BHSPitLappyand then I can manually unmark the artwork one07:41
pipedreambut you want the artwork for the single user07:42
pipedreamyou must update-alternatives a few things to reverse07:42
pipedreamthen have the single user change all these little things -- not nice07:42
BHSPitLappywell07:42
BHSPitLappyit's probably not worth all this fuss07:42
pipedreamI speak under possible correction, so I'll shut up now07:42
BHSPitLappyit's something I'd do if it was fairly convenient07:43
BHSPitLappybut otherwise, not that important07:43
BHSPitLappyI was just thinking it might be nice, since my mom homeschools my brother07:43
pipedreamit works well with ubuntu- kubuntu- xubuntu- and possibly fluxbuntu-desktop, and any other window manager's installed07:43
pipedreammanagers07:43
pipedreambut they all have separate session managers07:43
