good video
@ajcurran94 install compiz-fusion-plugins-extra
great app works fine !! tnx allot works on linux mint 9 kde too and ubuntu 10.04 tnx again
Hey, what mouse cursor do you use? And I know you don’t have it turned on in this video, but how do you get show mouse in 10.04?
@gotbletu Awww well..I figured the options 3 would work for that lol guess I was wrong.
Perfect for a kiosk computer. Seems like a regular user wouldn’t be able to save any files on frozen account.
@H4x0r18 is ment to lock normal users not admins #fail lols, no sudo
Sweet! Now I can use sudo rm -rf /*
@metalx1000 Yea that would be great
@gotbletu: It’s simple to do, and i made a video tutorial on it a few weeks on doing. I don’t think I’ve posted it yet. I’ll let you know when I do.
@metalx1000 cool, I never heard of that, sounds efficient
looks pretty good I’ll have to set that up for my dad..lol
I’ll give Ofris a try, but another option is to use Grub2 to boot from an ISO on your hard drive. With Deep Freeze the computer is unusable while updates are bing done. A nice thing about this is that you can remaster a LiveCD and ssh over to the computer and copy the ISO over while the user is still working and set it to use the new ISO when the computer is rebooted. Pretty much 0 down time this way.
I have not used Ofris, but I’m not a big fan of Deep freeze. Deep freeze is a nice idea, but there are programs to get around it, or you can just boot a Linux LiveCD and you can have full access to the hard drive.
Yeah… coz my mom keeps deleting my porn… lol
I wonder if you can freeze the system files only… and/or configure it to freeze only certain folders…
Very? cool? program,just what i needed as i look after 8 pc all with mint linux on them, they used to have xp,i got rid of that ASAP at our local community center . Thanks for your vids , you have some cool shit.
cool! just a question: in case I plug in a flashdrive and create content on it (after freezing the system), will those documents be frozen too? coz then i could keep all the files that use to change in one folder!
Cool Application – Thanks
This is great. Ubuntu is getting so close to becoming a viable corporate desktop operating system. We just need decent centralised management of users, groups, group policies, domains, and just about everything else…
Thanks for sharing.
Our school uses Deep freeze
Very cool program. Thanks. You make great videos.
I installed Ubuntu on a computer at my school
Deep freeze couldn’t delete it. Now I have Ubuntu at school 
Great job!
