| phaidros | hi, how to go from stock 12.4.3 to edubuntu? I believe it is just sources.list .. or is it just installing the edubuntu metapackages? | 10:14 |
|---|---|---|
| highvoltage | phaidros: you can keep your sources.list as is, look for the edubuntu-desktop and ubuntu-edu meta-packages in software center | 11:14 |
| phaidros | highvoltage: thanks! | 11:16 |
| phaidros | highvoltage: how much "better" ist 13.10 compared to LTS? (in stable envs I usually go for LTS or Debian stable, on my own Desktop I alwas use bleding edge, so what is good for a kids' desktop then .. ?! :) | 11:17 |
| highvoltage | phaidros: I'd recommend Ubuntu/Edubuntu LTS or Debian Stable as well for sure | 11:18 |
| highvoltage | phaidros: the newer versions don't really bring enough new features to make it worth while. most of the important software (web browser, libreoffice, etc) are available in updates anyway | 11:19 |
| phaidros | highvoltage: ic. is there a security concept yet, as whilelisting websites / apps, a granular permission system? | 11:25 |
| phaidros | .. speaking of a standalone system so far .. | 11:25 |
| highvoltage | phaidros: it's one of the top requests on edubuntu, but not implemented yet | 11:30 |
| highvoltage | phaidros: stgraber is working on a great AD-like solution on Edubuntu using Samba. the long-term plans is to have some kind of policy editor where those settings could be stored and propagated using that system | 11:30 |
| phaidros | highvoltage: sounds difficult, I'd go for a mixture of apparmor, plus a mandatory webproxy for certain user accounts | 11:51 |
| phaidros | for that proxy one can easily build whitelists with $webgui | 11:51 |
| phaidros | even export and share those lists .. | 11:52 |
| phaidros | this gets me thinking :) | 11:52 |
