-You have an Ubuntu system and you wish to try Sugar?
-There are now 2 versions to use:
-==Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS - Dextrose Sugar Live==
-:NEW 07/19/2013
-*'''Sugar 0.98.7'''
-===Download===
-*''' http://people.sugarlabs.org/Tgillard/ubuntu_12.04-20130712_i686.iso '''
-===Install to Hard Disk===
-#Ubuntu Startup-disk-creator will create a USB installer
-#Boot from Live DVD
-* "Username is "ubuntu", with empty password."
-:Either method will run as a live CD or Install to Hard Disk
- From Lists: support-gang@laptop.org 07/15/2013
- I just wanted to give everyone a heads about something coming down the pipe:)
- On of the primary frustrations that I have been hearing from the
- community is their inability to easily get hardware for their
- deployments.
- In response, we have released of an iso running Sugar on Ubuntu at
- http://ubuntu.activitycentral.com/makeiso/iso/ubuntu_12.04-20130712_i686.iso
- * Username is "ubuntu", with empty password.
- As alway, AC's code is 100% free and open source.
-===What's new===
- * Tuned up python-dbus clears the last bug that made most activities
- fail to start.
- * Logs in into Sugar automatically.
- * Most activities work (some will need some work, but it should not be
- caused by problems in Sugar dependencies anymore, but things specific
- to the activity). To be precise they start,  didn't test them in deeply
-  Didn't test collaboration yet.
- * General polish to make it look closer to a final product.
-===What fails===
- * Some quirks with the tamtam activities as usual, probably already
- fixed in newer bundles.
- * Write does not work as the gtk3 version of pyabiword or the gtk2
- version of libabiword are not available in Ubuntu, so both gtk2 and
- gtk3 versions of the activity are missing half of the dependencies.
- * Etoys and Scratch fail, probably because squeak-vm is not the proper
- version, so I'll be packaging that later as well.
- * The keyboard and network sections of the CP fail, the code makes
- some assumptions about being run in a xo or under fedora, resulting in
- unhandled exceptions.
- * Sometimes activities may fail to start if you open them right after
- logging in, because something with dbus is not yet fully running.

-==Sweets Distribution==
-*'''Sugar 0.94'''
-As of 2012-03, Ubuntu does not have a complete, stable version of Sugar in the Ubuntu repositories.  In particular, there is no compatible web browser.
-Until this is fixed, try one of these options:
-* use [[Sweets_Distribution|Sweets]] on Ubuntu, see [[#How_to_install_Sweets_on_Ubuntu|below]],
-* use a virtual appliance, compatible with any version of Ubuntu, see [[#How_to_install_a_virtual_appliance|below]],
-* use the incomplete version that Ubuntu provide, see the last section below, or
-* install from Sugar source.

-===How to install Sweets on Ubuntu===
-Install packages on an Ubuntu system so that you may run Sugar.
-See [[Sweets Distribution#Installation|How to install Sweets Distribution]].
-===How to install a virtual appliance===
-Install a virtual appliance based on Ubuntu:
-*the [[Sugar_Creation_Kit/sck/Sugar-in-Virtualization#Ubuntu_11.04_Sweets_Distribution_sugar_0.94|Ubuntu 11.04 Sweets Distribution Sugar 0.94 virtual appliance]],
-*a tutorial on [[Tutorials/Installation/Import a VirtualBox appliance|How to import a virtual appliance into VirtualBox]].
-There are other virtual appliances based on other distributions, which can be imported into virtualization software on Ubuntu.
-*see [[Sugar_Creation_Kit/sck/Sugar-in-Virtualization|Emulator image files]].
-===How to install '''Sugar 0.90''' on Ubuntu ===
-*'''NOT Recommended'''
-There are many problems with Sugar on Ubuntu (see [[/0.90|a list for 0.90]]), many of which have been fixed in a later version of Sugar, so we recommend the [[#How_to_install_Sweets_on_Ubuntu|Sweets]] or [[#How_to_install_a_virtual_appliance|virtual appliance]] methods above instead.
-In particular, there is no compatible web browser included, though there is a [[/0.90#Problem:_Browse_activity_does_not_work|workaround]].
-However, if you wish to to install Sugar on Ubuntu:
-*click on Ubuntu Software Center,
-*search for Sugar,
-*click on sugar-emulator or sugar,
-*click on Install,
-*if asked about other required applications, click to install.
-Sugar will be downloaded and installed.
-To start Sugar, click on Applications, then Education, then Sugar.
-See [[Emulator/Full Screen|how to create a desktop icon that runs Sugar full screen]].
-See [[Ubuntu/Previous]] for how to install older versions of Sugar on older versions of Ubuntu using Ubuntu Software Center.
-===sweets-sugar 0.94 works in Ubuntu 12.10 (unity and [http://community.linuxmint.com/tutorial/view/1246 '''cinnamon'''])===
