[LUAU] k12ltsp desktop

[Wilson Chan]

Ted,

Thats strange. My Redhat 9.3 and FC2 LTSP server doesn't delete the floppy access icon. If it deletes it try logging in as Root and push the floppy access button to all desktops. You can just drag and drop it on the All desktop icon on the root desktop. Give that a try.
