Version: (using KDE 4.1.0KDE 1.2KDE 1.2) Installed from: UnspecifiedCompiled From SourcesUnspecified Hi, I think that a parental control system should be added to kde. Of course it should be optional. Some of these features may be controlled by general programs (like web content filtering), others really depends on kde like a time limit of kde sessions. Example of needed features: * filter web content * limit msn/google talk/jabber sessions (disable or time-limit) * time limit of kde sessions (like 2 hours a day) * etc
Couldn't some of that br done through Kiosk?
I‘m wondering nobody ever requested such a feature. It isn‘t that also Linux users do have children? Or don‘t they? Also, Windows NT can restrict your login time since 1994 (NT 3.x could do that!) and Windows 7 also has a nice working easy-to-use parental control system. So why doesn‘t the in my eyes best desktop interface have one? See this as well: http://kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=51709
> time limit On https://launchpad.net/timekpr there is an, as far as i can see, already working application, which development has been stopped. The applications are python based and the admin and client notifier gui uses gtk. As already mentioned not having parental control in KDE will exclude many families around the world as potential users.
Would like this also! more and more, it is important to take care of the education of children...
I assume some parts will be a "must have" in Germany if the Update to the Youth Media Protection Act (German: Reform des Jugendmedienschutz-Staatsvertrags, Sechster Medienänderungsstaatsvertrag) becomes reality: https://www.ministerpraesident.sachsen.de/ministerpraesident/TOP-10-Sechster-Medienaenderungsstaatsvertrag.pdf I am wondering whether Linus will also accept something within the Kernel (IMHO then German Federal Council forces that as well…)
