When you go ask for Santos he is the Internet Cafe Manager. One thing to note they are running Ubuntu 10.04 which has the older Gnome 2 Interface. How ever several projects exist for example Mate or Cinnamon which allows you to run this on Ubuntu 12.04 also.

Your cafe attendant should be ready to help and support users basically those who seem to be totally green in this environment. Please go open-source On Thu, Jul 19, 2012 at 9:10 AM, Joseph Kasoma < [email protected] > wrote: Thanks for the post as I was also planning on looking for a cyber cafe mgt system i hadn't started as i hadnt gotten the funds as yet.Was planing on doing it 100% open source. Sorry for cross listing but one question i have is that is there any Open Source OS that 'goes easy' on a an average Windows user-one that is not interested so much in computers or is an ardent addict of windows. I would like one that anyone can easily use .I went to a cyber cafe running Ubuntu 11 on their machines but even as someone used to XP/Win7 i found it hard to switch between tabs or even applications sadly, the place closed down. Would gladly appreciate help on available very easy to use and manage desktop evironments or atleast something similar to windows.

As such, we have been able to convert all the students computer labs from windows to Ubuntu. Great stuff! However, there is this one lab in our main library, where we would want usage regulated based on time; a student sits on PC for a specified time say 45 minutes, when that time elapses, they are automatically logged off just like in an Internet cafe. When we were still Windows, we were using an app called Butterfly (from dsmagic); client-server billing and time management software. Can you guys help suggest something similar (client-server) for Linux? We are running on Ubuntu.
