New Linux User

Six users on one system at the same time

This tutorial is definitely not for the new Linux user, but I was so impressed by it I thought it warranted a write up. Bob Smith explains how he maximizes his Linux workstation to allow six users to use one computer simultaneously. The six users can simultaneously surf the web, use word processors, listen to music, and play games all at the same time. The article goes through the process of selecting and installing the appropriate hardware, installing Linux, recording the hardware configuration, reconfiguring Xorg, and GDM. Like I said, this is no easy task, however with the cost coming in at just $67 per seat, it is extremely impressive and useful. The setup uses Mandriva.
