===Sugar Programs===

I am very familiar with Linux and I am trying to find something for my 7 year old to get stated on. There are many great things that are offered here but a few I have questions about Sugar.<br />

~~=== Create a new User ===~~

1. I am downloading programs that are not from the activity page or git-hub that he likes to play I have to go in to the terminal and manually run the program, is there away to make an icon for this.<br />

I installed the ~~VirtualBox applicance version (Fedora13)~~ and I have ~~no idea how to create~~ a ~~new user~~. ~~I set it up for myself and want~~ to ~~have the rest of the family play~~ with ~~their own accounts~~. Not ~~sure if~~ this ~~is something I need~~ to ~~do in fedora or in Sugar~~. ~~I found some tutorials mentioning "Open the Terminal App"~~ - ~~which I also have no idea how to do~~. ~~It doesn't look like the terminal app~~/~~activity installed~~.

2. The browser based off of Mozilla Firefox is stripped down to much I installed Firefox and ran from the command line and I could finally view the videos. With the way you have it now you can not view videos it crashes and I think it would be cool if you could provide a kid friendly web browser. KidOz K2 was on to something there that would work great with Sugar Labs.

===Android===

Does Sugar support Android?

: Not at this time, although there are some developers working to change that situation. See this [http://www.mail-archive.com/iaep@lists.sugarlabs.org/msg13765.html mailing list thread]. --[[User:FGrose|FGrose]] 23:31, 17 January 2013 (EST)
