A client applet that locks the screen whenever the computer is not in use; shows time elapsed, and charges so far, whenever it is in use; and completely resets the environment when the customer has finished. An editable schedule of charges for amount of time spent on the computer (including things like overnight specials and loyalty programs), and for extras such as printing and CD-Rs. A dashboard showing a geographically-correct map of computers in the cybercafe; whether each one is free, in use, in use but idle, or unresponsive; and for each one in use, how long it has been used and what charges have accrued. The ability to add extra charges to a computer manually, or to reset its time if something went wrong. Integration with the printing system, so that when someone prints something they get charged automatically. As a bonus, the ability to check what's happening on the screen of each computer to ensure that it won't be disturbing other customers. - -- Matthew Paul Thomas http://mpt.net.nz/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAksyF04ACgkQ6PUxNfU6ecoh0ACgx1pew+3h+ughqMkaupHbhzV7 6scAoLlToceC6AOtpqiGHDMygFTp4upA =KSkZ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
