Ubuntu based distribution

It is Recommended to look at Trisquel for another solution

Trisquel is Ubuntu based and works well. (Trisquel 4 and 4.1 is based on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, Trisquel 5, on Ubuntu 11.04.)

Sugar Desktop 0.90.1 on Ubuntu 11.10

NOTE: The current Ubuntu version uses the previous version of Sugar 0.90. Collaboration is broken

Install package 'sucrose-0.90' with apt or Ubuntu Software Center.
Only comes with pippy and turtleart
You'll need to install the remaining individual activities by downloading them from http://activities.sugarlabs.org/ and installing each within a terminal:

sugar-install-bundle activity.xo

To turn off screensaver and power management:

terminal:
xset s off
xset -dpms
