<p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'>Our
library is looking into using Lynix or Ubuntu for our OPAC pc's -
kiosk mode only. Are there any libraries out there that have used these
operating systems in this way or have you used something similar? I believe
that the browser Firefox also has a kiosk mode. <o:p></o:p></p>
