- 20 Jul 2005 01:08
Changes: This release features a major code overhaul from earlier versions. Notably, the kiosk locker window no longer runs in the address space of KDE's kicker. Instead, a proxy applet launches a separate KioskLock process and communicates to it via DCOP (KDE's IPC mechanism). This way, switching to Kiosk-Mode UI can be a seamless process. In addition, initial support for deploying kiosk desktop Web applications (HTML + JavaScript + Java + Flash) is now included.
