Default startup page on Ubuntu guest session

I’ve been setting up some salvaged laptops for a local refugee center, running linux, and wanted to open a webpage automatically with useful information when a user logs on as guest. I did some googling, but found the explanations pretty confusing and convoluted. The solution is pretty simple, when you first figure it out.

Open source flash-based sound sequenzer
