My husband, a real technophobe, is going away for three weeks to house-sit. It is a last minute booking. He is going at 5:30 in the morning. I am giving him my netbook so that he can keep up with his emails. I have to keep it really simple or he will just freak out when I am 250 miles (c.400 kilometres) away and can't just lean over and help.. I.T. = PANIC!
I wanted to set things up so that he could open a browser on which there is Google as home page. Browse if he wants. Then click on "Gmail" if he wants to look at his email. Then either (optimum solution) log straight into his Gmail account or offer him the chance to sign in to his Gmail account. But I have in the past signed onto my own account on my netbook and %$^&*^$£ Google won't allow me to do anything else. I can sign into my account, add Peter as an additional account, and then in future sign into his account from my account. But I don't want that. I want to sign straight into his account and leave it like that for him. Help! Is anyone awake and on line? Any ideas? I haven't got time before he leaves to wipe the HDD and start again. I shall multi-post this to the Debian, Surrey and Portsmouth lists, because I am fairly desperate. It's the Saturday before Christmas here. People on this longitude will be either in bed or out on the town. Thanks, Lisi -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
