[14:26] <mgariepy> good morning everyone
[14:51] <linguistical> hi! can anyone help me with Gnome Nanny?  I can't get it working on the latest edubuntu release
[14:59] <highvoltage> hey there linguistical
[14:59] <highvoltage> linguistical: I haven't really used it but if there's problems it would be great if there's bugs filed so that we can look at it
[15:00] <linguistical> ok - where do I do that?
[15:01] <linguistical> I've tried using it on edubuntu and installed in on plain old ubuntu 11.04
[15:01] <linguistical> on the latter it didn't seem to do anything
[15:01] <linguistical> on edubuntu it said the daemon wasn't started
[15:06] <highvoltage> linguistical: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs
[15:07] <highvoltage> linguistical: I'm multitasking furiously right now, but if you want you could subscribe me to the bug and I can look at it sometime
[15:57] <Lobo29> Question about users desktop - Can you lock the desktop so a user cannot make changes to it, like deleting shortcuts you put there ?

[16:34] <alkisg> Shortcuts on the desktop are regular files. If you don't want the user to be able to delete them, you'd have to restrict his access to his own ~/Desktop dir
[17:59] <Lobo29> alkisg, this is for a school, the user profile will be an auto login for all students, we have other items taken care of thru menu editor, its just locking the desktop now.
[18:10] <alkisg> Do you want to allow users to create new shortcuts to their own desktop?
[18:15] <Lobo29> alkisg, Nope
[18:15] <alkisg> Lobo29: ok, then just chown their desktops to root:root or something
[18:16] <alkisg> It's a file-system issue, not a gconf issue
[18:19] <Lobo29> alkisg,  Great, thanks.
