Fedora OLPC
The Fedora OLPC SIG, https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/OLPC, will be importing further activities into Fedora, which might later be installed using
yum install sugar-*
- Here's a video of the process http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKmrtlyyCFo
- CJB suggests: as root, run: yum -y groupinstall "Sugar Desktop Environment"
The command to run Sugar is as root otherwise you may get this behavior.
