Desktop overview
Dell Hybrid Client boots to the desktop after a successful login. This is the default screen that is displayed after you log in to the
device—without autolaunch of any connections or applications. The desktop screen in Dell Hybrid Client uses the GNOME user
interface that is present in the Ubuntu operating system, but is customized to create a Dell Hybrid Client environment. The Dell
Hybrid Client desktop has a Dell default background with a horizontal top bar and a vertical task bar.
NOTE: In every Dell Hybrid Client release, the default desktop background wallpaper may be changed.
