That’s interesting. Genuinely interested in how you can have desktop Linux pcs managed as effectively. I would love it if institutions in the U.S use Linux for their desktops.
You could configure certain DEs in a kiosk mode. I don’t know much about it, but it reset the session and user to a default at every log off, he could track usage time, do all sorts of remote session management.
If you search for Linux for classrooms there are probably a couple projects still around.
I’m sorry, I didn’t go into it back then. And we’re talking like 15 years ago. He doesn’t even own the cafe anymore (what with smart phones and all), was a repair tech for a while, and now I don’t know, we lost touch.
Nope, the concept pretty much vanished after we started carrying the internet in our pockets. Even LAN houses (as in places for gaming) are gone, but I can’t identify a clear reason for those.

Back in the day, a friend of mine used to run a cyber cafe with Linux machines in kiosk mode. He said the management was very hassle free.
There’s some hidden kiosk mode?

That’s so cool. What kind of remote management does he use?

Do cyber cafes not exist anymore? Genuinely curious, don’t see them around my area.

Any thoughts about doing the same for Canada, Trudeau?
