Not sure about Ctl-Esc, but Alt-Tab works exactly the same in fluxbox. In fluxbox.9.11, can you link the FULL menu off the window menu? ie. have your usual window menus, plus say a "dsl menu", which pops out the usual full menu? Basically I'm after somewhere to click to bring up the menu when apps are fully maximised, without having to shade anything. If I could just right click on the window title bar and get the menu off that, that would be ideal.Ah, fluxbox.9.11 has Alt-F11 bound to the menu... nice!

There are some things which don't work from the window menu....no idea why. Regular applications should work fine, but there were a couple of special commands that wouldn't work properly. The 'restart' command, for example, just closes Fluxbox unless it's issued from the root menu or command dialog.I think either Knoppix or DSL are great choices. I'd consider taking the hard drives out and just run either. That way you'd never have to repair their errors.
I think you will find that most kids can understand linux to some extent. Each will adapt as well as they do to Windows or Mac's.Back to the schoolkids issue. My 10 year old and two 6 year olds have been accessing DSL on my dualbooting PC. box for nearly a year. The whole dual boot concept using Lilo and using the Fluxbox menu with the mouse is simple enough to them. After initially going straight to the games my older boy has found Sketch, Cruiser and particularly Imagemagic a lot of fun and a bit more productive. They like the directness and relative simplicity of DSL as opposed to Win98. If there ever are Formula 1. racing and Tony Hawkes skateboarding game .dsls then they will be completely sold!Next Page...
