===REBUILD DUE (WEMBLEY CLEANUP)=== | |||
This system is due for a rebuild with Ubuntu 18.04 and will sport the following: | |||
* Printer access | |||
* Cool Hackspace Logo at Login Screen and Guest desktop | |||
* Default Guest login access - (session data deleted upon logout - save to a USB key or upload to your favourite cloud provider) | |||
** USB Serial Port Access (dialout /etc/group) | |||
** USB Drive Mounting including thumb drives and external drives | |||
** Shortcuts to addcard.py and X-Chat IRC access on desktop | |||
* [[LDAP]] login access - (no guarantee that data will be preserved for any appreciable amount of time) - but nice to have your own login | |||
* No guest sudo access - please find a burner laptop or random hackable PC and install Linux and go have fun there) | |||
* BIOS locked down - no booting from external USB key - again, find a random PC and do your bidding there | |||
* Software build including Chrome/Chromium, Arduino IDE, LibreOffice, various multimedia and enhancements, etc. | |||
