I would look at setting up a "kiosk system", e.g. http://www.alandmoore.com/blog/2011/11/05/creating-a-kiosk-with-linux-and-x11-2011-edition/ http://users.telenet.be/mydotcom/howto/linuxkiosk/intro.htm http://linuxgazette.net/128/adam1.html But of course, if no one else has access to the computer and it is not connected to the web, then you are pretty much free to do as you wish. Hopefully, some ideas can be garnered from the web, those links above are from a quick google using "linux kiosk system" as the search term(s). -- "If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing." --- Malcolm X _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
