kde.org publishes KDE "kiosk mode" tutorial
Mar. 10, 2005

One of the more powerful aspects of the KDE desktop is the ability to customize the user experience completely. Most KDE programs use core features and plugins provided by the desktop system, creating a consistent user interface and easy-to-access configuration setup. One popular extension to this interface, known as KDE's Kiosk Mode, allows a system administrator to configure all aspects of the desktop for an end user and optionally prevent the end user from making modifications to the provided setup.

A tutorial on using Kiosk Mode is now available on the KDE website. (It was originally printed in Linux Journal #129, and is reprinted with permission of the author.)

The tutorial is available here.
