---+ Math Support Center Sign-In Sign-Out Form %BEGINOVERVIEW% Logging forms are now implemented on a Laptop in the MSC so students can sign in/out and leave comments. %ENDOVERVIEW% ---++ FYI: * The laptop is intended as a dedicated station for sign-in and sign-out. * Firefox is configured with the sign-in page as its home page. * The network connection is minimal -- only the sign-up server is accessible. * If someone quits Firefox, just relaunch it from the desktop icon. * If the laptop seriously misbehaves * Press the Power button until it powers off * Wait a few moments * Press the power button to turn it back on. ---++ Geek details: * Yes, it's really booting from a floppy. * Yes, its OS and configuration are all on the 64Meg USB Pen Drive. * Yes, its limited network access is configured elsewhere. * Yes, it's accessing a different machine. * Yes, it's running Linux. DSL Linux -- Google:DSL+Linux * Yes, it's modern Firefox running on a laptop with: * 300 Mhz Pentium MX processor * 64Meg RAM * Yes, it's likely I will strip superfluous stuff from the desktop. Feel free to drop me a note if you're interested in more details.
