[KLUG Members] gnome users in a one app prison

[Tony Gettig]

This is a very interesting thread to me. One of the holy grails of the 
environment I work in is the ability to restrict the users desktop. I would 
like to do exactly what you're describing, Dirk. Please do share your results. 

And hey, with math class finally over, I intend to be at KLUG tonight! I have 
to remember not to take another Tuesday night class. :)
