Hello everyone,
One feature that has been lacking behind is a proper way to quickly search useful content within the Labdoo platform. We did have a search box in certain places but its features were limited.
Recently i have implemented a search box that is a bit richer in its functionalities. You will now find it in almost all the pages.
The new search box:

Hi Wendy, during the meeting in Barcelona I will ask other helpers, if they know a way to visualize the user using LXDE desktop. Actually I found no solution to show if user labdoo or student is logged in.
So one idea is to use the wonderful wallpapers you designed (still 01 is my favourite) and to add "user: labdoo" and "user: student" in the text shown in the wallpaper. Then I can pre-set...

How about rendering new Labdoo pictures (tiles) for Barcelona congress? The last time we calculated collages was about 1-2 years ago. Now we have much more pictures in our database. And maybe you want to calculate new and other pictures, logos etc.?
Either before the congress to use it for presentations? Or maybe we can take a picture of all participants in Barcelona and render this picture...
Hello team,
Ralf and I have taken some initiatives lately to help improve the contribution/donation workflow for new users who don't know much about Labdoo. The idea is that we want to make things really simple for people who don't have the time to create a Labdoo account but who still want to donate a laptop or contribute a trip to carry laptops to a school. Those who have the time and really...
Please note that CUPS (Common Uńix Printing System) is not coming with a basic (L)Ubuntu installation. It was part of a basic (L)Ubuntu 14.04 LTS system. Without CUPS you are not able to connect and install a printer :( We are adding CUPS this week to all Labdoo images for cloning (uploading to FTP server will take a while).
