Ma Xiaojun: /* Ubuntu-based Sugar Spin */

==Introduction==
We provide two kinds of information in this page.
#Existing Ubuntu-based Sugar Spins. A Sugar Spin is a Linux distribution which uses Sugar as its default desktop environment.
#How to install Sugar for your Ubuntu desktop. It is dependent on your Ubuntu's release version and the Sugar version you are going to install.

==Ubuntu-based Sugar Spins==
====Trisquel On A Sugar Toast====
:For Sugar only look at [[Trisquel_On_A_Sugar_Toast| '''Trisquel Toast''']]

====Ubuntu Sugar Remix====
:Ubuntu has not updated their repositories for sugar since version 0.90 when the [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Sugar '''Ubuntu Sugar Remix Team'''] stopped work.
:http://people.sugarlabs.org/dfarning/
:*Archive of discontinued project to add Sugar to Ubuntu
:*'''These do not work very well.''' Not Recommended

==[[Image:Ubuntu-small.jpg]]Sugar Desktop 0.94 on Ubuntu 11.04==
*Look at [[Community/Distributions/Sweets_Distribution| '''sweets-distribution''']] for sugar 0.88 in Ubuntu 10.04 1nd 10.10
:Click this link ^
:Sweets Distribution is easier to use for Ubuntu' and its Derivatives (Adding an additional Repository via apt commands) as the packages are pre-configured, ready to use.)
::('''Advanced installation skills required.''')
:Has Dextrose features
===Installation Suggestions===
:Install Ubuntu 11.04
:: Download link: http://releases.ubuntu.com/natty/
:Log in to "Gnome-classic" (select it from the drop-down menu on the bottom bar of the login screen.)
:copy-paste these commands to Ubuntu terminal one line at a time:
sudo apt-add-repository 'deb http://download.sugarlabs.org/packages/SweetsDistribution:/0.94/Ubuntu-11.04/ ./'
wget -qO- http://download.sugarlabs.org/packages/SweetsDistribution:/0.94/Ubuntu-11.04/Release.key | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install sweets-distribution
*The main menu will now have '''Education/Sugar'''
*'''Congratulations you have now installed sugar 0.94'''
====To get sugar to run full screen====
*Menu:
:Applications/Education/Sugar
:Right click on sugar XO
::"Add this launcher to the desktop" - chose this option
*right click on the XO that is now on the desktop
:"Properties"
::Command: sweets-sugar-emulator '''-f''' - Add the '''-f''' for full screen (Close)
*Now when you click the XO sugar will start full screen and not in a window.
====VirtualBox Appliance to import====
*http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_Creation_Kit#Ubuntu_11.04_sweets-distribution_sugar_0.94
:This is exactly the same as achieved with the Installation Suggestions above

==[[Image:Ubuntu-small.jpg]]Sugar Desktop 0.90 on Ubuntu 11.10==
NOTE: ''This version uses previous Sugar release. Collaboration is broken''
*Sugar 0.90 is NOT RECOMMENDED.
*Install sucrose-0.90

sudo apt-get install sucrose-0.90

Only comes with pippy and turtleart. You can download more Activities from [[http://activities.sugarlabs.org/| activites.sugarlabs.org ]] from outside of Sugar and install each .xo bundle individually in a terminal with:

sugar-install-bundle activity.xo

To run Sugar fullscreen:
*Go to the menu Applications->Education->sugar
*Drag and drop the Sugar icon to the desktop
*Right-click on Sugar icon and choose Properties
*Change the command to:

sugar-emulator -f

If you need to turn off screensaver and power management:

==[[File:200px-Edubuntu.png]]Sugar Desktop 0.90 on edubuntu 11.10==
Sugar 0.90 is NOT RECOMMENDED

''Note: classic gnome fallback is available on install''

*Install sucrose-0.90

sudo apt-get install sucrose-0.90

Only comes with pippy and turtleart. To get more activities you can:
