= Sugar on Ubuntu =
 
 
 
'''As of December 2009, We started a total refactoring of how Sugar is packaged in Ubuntu.'''
 
 
 
'''Please See the Ubuntu Sugar Remix https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Sugar for the latest information.'''
 
 
 
The Sugar packages for Ubuntu provide a Sugar environment that is easy to install and can be configured as an X session in gdm or run in a window with sugar-emulator.
 
 
 
For some people the emulator mode has a serious bug where modifier keys get stuck.  A work around is to disable keyboard repeat.
 
 
 
== Sugar on Ubuntu 10.04 (lucid) ==
 
recommended method to install 10.04 Lucid:
 
Do new install of Ubuntu 9.10
 
press Alt + F2 and then type "update-manager -d" (without quotes). It will show you that a newversion of Ubuntu is available.
 
Click on Upgrade to upgrade your current Ubuntu 9.10
 
 
 
Lucid has Sugar 0.88, 0.86, and 0.84 packages synced from [[Community/Distributions/Debian|Debian]].
 
 
 
The current preferred method of running Sugar on Ubuntu is via Ubuntu Sugar Remix which can be downloaded at http://people.sugarlabs.org/dfarning
 
 
 
Packages can also be install via sudo
 
sudo apt-get install sugar-0.88  <possibly depreciated>
 
 
 
You can also install Ubuntu Sugar remix on a computer running Ubuntu 10.04. from UbuntuSugarRemix wiki: [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuSugarRemix]01/28/2010
 
 
 
  sudo add-apt-repository ppa:sugarteam/ppa
 
  sudo apt-get upgrade
 
  sudo apt-get install ubuntu-sugar-remix
 
 
 
=== Reporting Bugs ===
 
 
 
Please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuSugarRemix/Report for information on reporting bugs.
 
 
 
'''This is likely to be reimplemented as Lucid hits Feature Freeze'''
 
The Ubuntu Sugar team will do their best to provide fixes for bugs, but it does take time to get an updated package uploaded through Ubuntu's [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates Stable Release Updates] process. Where possible we'll suggest a workaround, or provide a fix in the [https://launchpad.net/~sugarteam/+archive Sugar Team PPA] first.
 
 
 
== Sugar-0.88 on Ubuntu 9.10 (karmic) ==
 
 
 
'''NOTE''' If 0.86 ppa was used before, you'll have to clean it up (unfortunately 0.86 ppa uses epoch versions and couldn't be used with 0.88 one):
 
 
 
sudo apt-get remove `dpkg-query -W -f '${package} ${maintainer}\n' | grep alsroot | awk '{print $1}'`
 
sudo sed -i '/alsroot.sugar-0.86/d' /etc/apt/sources.list
 
 
 
To install:
 
 
 
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:alsroot/trisquel-edu-3.5
 
sudo apt-get update
 
sudo apt-get install sugar-platform
 
 
 
== Sugar-0.86 on Ubuntu 9.10 (karmic) ==
 
 
 
To install:
 
 
 
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:alsroot/sugar-0.86
 
sudo apt-get update
 
sudo apt-get install sugar-platform
 
 
 
== Sugar-0.86 on Ubuntu 9.04 (jaunty) ==
 
 
 
Before attaching ppa, load gpg key
 
gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv F265806A9BFFF0F4
 
gpg --export --armor F265806A9BFFF0F4 | sudo apt-key add -
 
 
 
Then attach PPA and install entirely Sugar Platform:
 
sudo sh -c 'echo deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/alsroot/trisquel-edu-3/ubuntu jaunty main >> /etc/apt/sources.list'
 
sudo apt-get update
 
sudo apt-get install sugar-platform
 
 
 
<!--
 
Jaunty, the current Ubuntu release, has Sucrose 0.83 packages synced from [[Community/Distributions/Debian|Debian]].
 
 
 
Sugar does not work out-of-the-box under Jaunty as of 2009-07-01, although there is a workaround. See the [[Talk:Community/Distributions/Ubuntu|discussion here]] for more information.

= ejabberd collaboration server on Ubuntu =
 
 
 
We use ejabberd for a collaboration server. Ubuntu 8.10 ships with the required patches included in ejabberd, so you can install ejabberd, configure it and have working collaboration within minutes, using these installation instructions: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Installing_ejabberd/deb
 
 
 
For Ubuntu 8.04 you need to build from source: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Installing_ejabberd
 
 
 
= Sugar Team =
 
 
 
Sugar on Ubuntu is packaged and maintained by the [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SugarTeam Ubuntu Sugar team][https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuSugarRemix], who welcome new contributors to test, document, triage, and make packages.
