chilipie-kiosk

Raspberry Pi 2 image for booting directly into full-screen Chrome.

Main features:

Boots directly to full-screen Chrome - with all the features of a modern browser
No automatic updates - no surprises due to Chrome (or other packages) suddenly updating
Automatic crash-recovery - accidentally unplugging your kiosk won't result in a "Chrome did not shut down correctly" screen on next boot
Custom startup graphics - displays customizable graphics while the browser is starting up
Lightweight window manager - uses Matchbox for minimal clutter and memory footprint
HDMI output control - ready-made scripts for e.g. turning off the display outside of office hours
Cursor hiding - if you leave a mouse plugged in, the cursor is hidden after a brief period of inactivity
Based on a recent Ubuntu - if you want to add your own hacks, all the expected packages are one apt-get away
