Hi,

how can I build me ubuntu so that I get the following abilities:

1) Login with username and password
2) multiuser in X so that I can change user without loggin other one out.
3) No desktop, no start menu etc. but only 3 or 4 graphical applications between which I can switch (e.g. by keyboard shorcut)
4) All applications run in fullscreen mode (maybe forced)

Thanks in advance

You should start with a CLI only install, and then hand pick what you want/ need.
