<DIV>I can't explain why your students' screens are going black. To avoid such situations at our K12LTSP sites, rather than having students double-click an icon to open its program, we train them to right-click the icon, then select "Open" from the floating menu that appears. It will still take some seconds for the program to start, but the students know their request has been sent and they are to wait rather than retrying.</DIV>

<DIV style="COLOR: #000000">something changed on my K12LTSP where if a student gets impatient waiting for a program to open and double-clicks childsplay or tuxtype too many times, the screen just turns black; you have a mouse that moves around but nothing else but a black screen. This just recently happened. Its a nightmare because the kids click way too many times and then it crashes and the only way to fix it is to turn the thin client off and turn it back on. Any ideas what happened?<BR><BR>_______________________________________________<BR>K12OSN mailing list<BR>K12OSN@redhat.com<BR><A href="https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/k12osn">https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/k12osn</A><BR>For more info see <<A href="http://www.k12os.org">http://www.k12os.org</A>><BR></DIV></BODY></HTML>
