- Choose the highest version on the list
- Index of activities listing Activity Number
- Numeric list of Activities
DVD of Sugar Activities Library
- http://download.sugarlabs.org/images/ASLOxo6-3.iso 3.2 GB DVD (21 January 2012)
- Contains over 500 Activity.xo files
- Use as an off-line "sneaker net"- Download one time and have an off-line library of Sugar Activities on hand.
- Burn the .iso file to a DVD.
- To View tests and compatibility of some of the included Activities (works off-line) on the included Activity_Matrix web page;
- Open the Activity_Matrix.html file in the Activity_List Folder on the DVD with Firefox, or in Sugar Browse 129 or Surf 115.
- Or.
- Copy contents of DVD to a USB-stick and open the USB-stick Activity_Matrix.html file in Sugar Browse 129 or Surf 115. - (Browse 130 does not open it in f17)
- Hint: Use search window (_______) on the top bar of USB-stick display that appears when you click on the USB-stick icon in the left bottom corner of the sugar screen.
- look for Activity_Matrix.html use open with on the drop down box that appears when you hover over the Activity_Matrix.html file.
- Suggestion: copy only the activity.xo files that you want to use from the DVD to a (fat 16/32) USB-stick; Insert it and use it to drag-drop install a custom suite of activities to Sugar.
- Activities.xo files can be installed by drag-dropping them into the Sugar Journal from a mounted DVD or a USB to which they have been copied.
- You can also install and open the activities by clicking on them.

HTML5 activities
- NEW 04/30/2013
- Because HTML5 activities generate lot of threads I must confess that I’m lost :-(
- And if I’m lost, I think that it worse for students interested by this subject for the GSoC :-)
- So I’ve tried to sum up everything I know about this subject on a dedicated page of the Wiki: :http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/HTML5_activities
- Do not hesitate to Complete/update if I missed something, Move it if I’ve put it in a wrong place.

transcoding script yt-to-ogg.py

Hi all, The question about how to get videos from Khan Academy in any language was asked several times on this list. We planned this year to deploy offline Khan Academy videos in French to our Nosy Komba deployment. So I've worked with Bibliotheque Sans Frontiere to get French videos. They suggested me to use KA Lite [1], a software dedicated to install a offline Khan Academy server. BTW it's slightly intrusive and need some installation. So I've write a script to explore and extract only videos URL. You could find it here [2]. The result of the script could be seen here [3] as a tree or here [4] as a single list. Hope it could help.

Screencasting
- Details of screencasting in fedora
Gnome3 has already a screen recording functionality
Note: in Gnome3 you may need to do:
yum install recordmydesktop
As it may not be included in live Desktop to reduce it's size to 1 GB
- F21 (rawhide) Desktop has been replaced with F21 (rawhide) Workstation-live
- Note updated - 05/20/2014
- Pressing Alt+Ctrl+Shift+R recording will start.
- There should be a red icon on the right-bottom corner of your screen.
- Pressing it again will stop the recording. The video is saved on your Videos directory on webm format.
- Tested in f18;f19;f20;f21(rawhide) Gnome (3.8.0);f20 Gnome (3.10.2);f21(rawhide)3.11.90
- 03/13/2014 stores file in Videos subdirectory as Screencast from (date-time).webm

- 09/21/2013 flash on a XO
If you are using Flash you need to also install nspluginwrapper, and use it to "wrap" the plugin so WebKit can see it. Use "yum -y install nspluginwrapper" to install the package. The OLPC OS build scripts for custom builds use the following command (run as root or via sudo) to finish the wrapping process. I have not verified it yet on a XO-1.5: /usr/lib/nspluginwrapper/npconfig -n -p nswrapper_32_32 -d /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins-wrapped -i /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so
html5 Trial in youtube
- "This is an opt-in trial of HTML5 video on YouTube."
- "We support browsers that support both the video tag in HTML5 and either the h.264 video codec or the WebM format (with VP8 codec)"
Convert MediaWiki to HTML
- Firefox:"Save page as-Web page-complete"
- If these are saved to a USB they can be opened with a XO-1 running os883 switched to gnome desktop,
- or any off-line computer running firefox browser.
- This may be the simplest way to generate a HTML file for adding to the new sugar webpage (not tested)

Installing and using liveusb-creator in sugar
- An easy method for Fedora and Windows, however this method does not generate a separate home.img filesystem to conserve the exhaustible OS overlay (see LiveOS image), nor does it copy the livecd-iso-to-disk installation script to the new device to permit generation of a new Live USB device from the first.
- Note if graphical liveusb-creator program will not make a bootable USB stick from an .iso file:
- (This can happen if the stick is formatted to fat16 on another PC with a different Operating System.)
- Use terminal command :
liveusb-creator --reset-mbr
- USB stick must be formatted: fat16/32; Labeled=LIVE; boot flag set.
- (The LIVE label is only required when the device is to be used for a subsequent uncompressed installation to a hard disk.)
