==Launching Sugar==
With {{Code|sugar-desktop}} and {{Code|sugar-runner}} installed you have two simple ways of running Sugar.
:::'''Sugar Desktop Environment'''<br> <span style="color: gray">sugar-desktop</span>
: 1. The ''Sugar Runner'' will be available (no restart required) from the ''Applications Menu -> Education -> Sugar''.
::* Sugar will run in a [[wikipedia:Xephyr|Xephyr]] window, entitled 'Sugar Runner', within your current desktop environment. You will have full access to Sugar features, and may even run multiple instances. Networking bugs may currently prevent collaboration with others in the jabber.sugarlabs.org server Neighborhood. Press key '''F1''' to see the Sugar Neighborhood view.
{{Note/note|Note:|By default, ''sugar-runner'' runs full screen.
* "Logout" of Sugar (from the Home screen's central avatar hover palette), to return to the desktop environment you were previously using.
* See also [[The Undiscoverable#sugar-emulator, sugar-runner, and sweets-sugar-emulator|emulator screen size adjustment]] for alternative emulator sizing.}}

: 2. You may also boot directly to the Sugar Desktop Environment (also known as a Sugar session).
::* On reboot, at the login screen, a "Sugar" entry will now be present (perhaps hidden) somewhere in the login screen, under a "settings icon" or under "Session Type".
::*: The "Sugar" entry in the login screen may not be very obvious at first, and the look will depend on the login manager on your system. This image shows the "Sugar" entry being selected in Fedora 20 GNOME3. (Click the image to see an enlarge version.)
::* Select "Sugar" within the login prompt, enter your password, and '''Enter''', and the computer will boot into the Sugar Desktop Environment.
