Hi Bob,
It seems you experience a problem with the network configuration.
By default the live system network works fine for me behind a DHCP server.
I think we could add some more details about how to configure networking
in our installation documents in case someone else faces the same issue
as you do.
I am not sure though about a popup. We already have a popup with generic
info to the user about where to get help and password file location.
Best,
Angelos

All,
So, we’ve been handing out Live OSgeo thumb drives for a couple of years now,
and we’ve put a bit of work into explaining how to get up and running with it
to new users. We hand out a getting started card for example.
One item that we wanted to run past the list for, is an addition to the VM
start screen. The idea is to add a Network checking process to the interface,
something that pops up a dialog to explain that there is no network configured.
Most people who have experience with setting up computers know to check
something like this, even in a VM, but your average new user of a VM, doesn’t
know by default that they also need to configure the network for the VM after
is starts.
Thoughts?

Hi Brian,
You've created another great image. I love it. I like the use of stars, and wonder how it
would look if you would change the green logo to a translucent white shadow, probably
also make the "OSGeo-Live 9.5" text more transparent too. Or maybe even make
the stars cluster into the OSGeo logo design.
Thanks, Cameron
