Ubuntu 8.10 Beta Video – Using Guest Session
Guest session is a new feature for the Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid Ibex Linux desktop. Guest session allows
users to use the user-switcher applet to select, a password-less account for a guest to use. This account will not allow them to permanently save any files or open administrative options. Now you can use Ubuntu’s guest session and loan your computer to a friend or let a classmate check their email, worry-free. This video on the Ubuntu 8.10 guest session shows how to change to a guest session from a regular user account on the Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid Ibex desktop.

guest session, intrepid ibex, ubuntu 8.10
BeginLinux 
Video did not show logging back into a new guest session to see if:
A) NO urls or other stuff were saved in FireFox?
B) if a totally new guest session could be started (nothing hanging around at all from a previous guest)
C) If you can go directly into guest from the Boot Screen Login (without going to change user).
This guest feature will be a killer for Libraries if it operates in a Kiosk Mode as the guest, and does not allow for a hangover of files or any evidence of any prior guest session use as each new guest logs in.
I’m sorry the video was so brief, you bring up a some good points.
A)When I restarted new guest could no see URLS from previous guest
B)Seems to be a totally new guest as long as your log out completely
C)No, i did not see where you can enter as a guest through the boot screen, but that doesn’t mean it’s not possible.
is it possible to play music in guest session?
because first i tried it did not work
thank you begin
