====Create and read wiki-page.pdf files in LDXE and Sugar====
*You can Create wiki-page.pdf files in LDXE using the RPi to load on a USB for access in sugar-read :
:See: [[Tutorials/Tutorials.iso]]
:Browser in LDXE can print Wiki pages to a .pdf file
yum install evince
:evince is added so .pdf files can be read in LDXE
::Read in sugar already can open the .pdf files on a 2nd USB
*Evince reading Tutorials USB on LDXE Desktop

===Notes===
*To run sugar: log-out/log-in then choose sugar in switcher after you enter your user name.
*Information; http://zenit.senecac.on.ca/wiki/index.php/Raspberry_Pi_Fedora_Remix
*Sugar IRC-10 in RPi "B" 512 on rpfr-f18-rc1 (arm) and rpfr-17-xfce-r2 use IP6 ...all my other devices use IP4
...
In general newer versions of Fedora will try and autodiscover IPv6 networks.
If it finds one with a non-local (not fe80::) IP address it will get on it, and used the IPv6 routers spotted if present
Given a DNS name with both IPv4 & v6 addresses set, it's mostly up to the application to see if asks the OS to do v4, v6,
or just generically whichever the OS thinks makes the most sense
*How to write the SD in a MAC:http://alltheware.wordpress.com/2012/12/11/easiest-way-sd-card-setup/

*When you erase some journal entries to free up space and retest; activities that (failed to start) they work
:erased almost all entries in sugar-journal and rebooted Pi Then activities worked on retest
:- looks like some activities require a lot of resources of the RPi and the journal must remain almost empty to start.

*r3 Image
"Mike Thompson has produced a publicly available SD image of Raspbian that is bootable on Raspberry Pi hardware.
This is called the "pisces" image as that is what Mike's Raspberry Pi system is named on his LAN.
This image is a little newer and includes a more complete installation of Raspbian and LXDE than the more minimal Hexxeh image.
This image was created using the Debian installer so it reflects a minimal Debian installation with the LXDE packages added for a desktop."
*Once booted, log into one of the two existing accounts:
Username      Password
root          raspbian
raspbian      raspbian
*This version has a fake hardware clock as the RPi has no clock
