| + | <br> |
| + | The way I developed all the software was through Ubuntu. It's a very easy to use Linux distribution and it has a package manager called Synaptic (maybe the "synergy" you were talking about) that can install the Sugar environment with just one click. You don't need to install |
| + | Ubuntu, you can try a LiveCD (similar to the sugar on a stick) or even install or run it through a virtualization software under Windows.<br> |
| + | Developing on the XO is not comfortable unless you access it through SSH and use another computer to type and copy/paste anytime is necessary.<br> |
| + | Let me know what approach you find best and I can help you set it up.<br> |
| + | There are some vmware images available, this is the newest I could found: http://jars.de/english/ubuntu-804-vmware-image-download-english |
| + | Just download the image, install the vmplayer (free, as in free beer): |
| + | http://www.vmware.com/products/player/ And run it, then you should look for "sugar" in synaptic and install it.<br> |
| + | Good luck,<br> |

| + | Dennis replied thanking Urko for the response and asked whether the latest code was in git or the .xo file since we found differences between the two. |
