Sanity Check
Once the EULA has been accepted, the Userful MultiSeat
Install Wizard performs a number of checks on the
computer system to ensure that the system will support
the software. The Wizard checks:
1. Operating System Compatibility
2. Package Dependencies
3. Kernel Version
If there are any issues with the computer system, a brief
description of the problem will point toward a solution.
Click "Next" to proceed with installation of Userful
MultiSeat. When installation is complete, a final screen
will notify of that fact. Click "Finish" to close the Install
Wizard.
The system must be rebooted to launch Userful MultiSeat ... but before rebooting, please refer to the
next section for some important operating system set-up tasks.
Post-Install Configuration
Extra User Accounts
The Userful MultiSeat Linux 2011 installation process will automatically create a number of accounts to
simplify use in a classroom setting with iTALC. Specifically, it creates:
• 12 student accounts, with usernames "student1" through "student12", and
• 1 teacher account, with username "teacher"
Each user will be prompted to enter a password the first time they log in. The exception is the
administrative user (the username and password specified during installation).
If you later wish to change passwords, or need to create other accounts, please refer to this How To about
the Users and Groups administration tool (located in System > Administration > Users and Groups).
Set a Root Password
Ubuntu/Edubuntu does not set a root password by default. Instead, Ubuntu relies on the sudo functionality
(see the sudo home page for more information. However, Userful recommends setting a root password in
case it is necessary to work in non-graphical mode (for troubleshooting, for example), and to access the
Userful Control Center in some circumstances.
To set a root password, on the host computer:
1. Open a terminal.
2. Enter the following command:
sudo passwd root
