Ciao Amedeo, This is an old thread I know. I just want to comment about host computer data. When DDL is running live, no problem, the entire computer filesystem is mounted read-only into /mnt so that it does not appear directly in the file browser. Of course a child may navigate to /mnt but it is read-only! When DDL is installed onto the computer, onto hard disk, you get a standard (Debian) system. The DDL user don't have admin rights in this case, while the Live system has sudo rights (= admin access). So users, as in any Unix system, are not able to change any file for which they don't have the required rights. Basically they can only alter their own work.
NB: concerning the proposed changes for the main menu, these sound like good ideas. Unfortunately it may be difficult to implement right now because we're relying on software not really flexible for that (the so-called display manager). I still hope to find a fanatic developer who would write our main menu from scratch one day so that we get everything we need :). Cheers, JM.
