-====The Sugar Learning Environment is packaged in Fedora 13.====
-* From the System -> Administration -> Add/Remove Software menu, search for Sugar.
-* Among all the packaged Activities select,

-: and any or all of the Activities.
-: Sugar will be available in your Applications -> Education menu.
-== Fedora 14 ==
-* Available as a LiveCD/USB image, [http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/spins/linux/releases/14/Spins/i686/Fedora-14-i686-Live-SoaS.iso F14 Sugar on a Stick Mango Lassi Spin] - A Sugar-only environment within a [[LiveOS image]].
-====Sugar Learning Environment packaged in F14 or F15====
-* In root terminal:
- yum groupinstall sugar*
- yum install sugar-emulator
-Sugar will run in a [[wikipedia:Xephyr|Xephyr]] window within your current environment. You will have full access to the Sugar features, and may even run multiple instances to simulate a local collaboration group. Later versions of Sugar require one emulator per logged in user (there can be more than one user running) '''Check this'''
-: Adjust the default window size for Sugar by editing the menu item for Sugar to<br>{{Code|/usr/bin/sugar-emulator -i 1200x900}}
-:: to match the XO reflective screen resolution
-: {{Code|/usr/bin/sugar-emulator -i 832x624}}
-:: approximates the display proportions of the XO laptops, closely matching the toolbar, for example.
-: {{Code|/usr/bin/sugar-emulator -i 600x500}}
-:: fits the screen for a 10-inch netbook
-: {{Code|/usr/bin/sugar-emulator -f}}
-:: '''full screen on netbook'''

-Notes:
-:1-) Browse-120; Chat70 (does not start)
-:2-)to fix screensize in sugar-emulator:

- gedit /usr/share/applications/sugar-emulator.desktop
- edit line 6: Exec='''sugar-emulator -f'''
- save
- Logout
- login
-:3-)How to show user pictures on the GDM LOGIN screen
-::Click "my account" on the top panel lets me edit the picture, and
-::adding a picture will show it on the GDM login screen.
-:4-)If you hold down Alt, a 'Shut Down' option appears in place of suspend
-:5-)the Shell simply always behaves so there's exactly one empty workspace.
-So when you start a session you have one workspace.
-As soon as you run something it goes into that workspace and
-you get a second empty workspace. As soon as you put any app into that
-empty workspace, a new empty workspace is created. If you remove
-everything from any workspace, it will disappear, so there's still only
-one empty workspace at the bottom of the list. So, there's never any
-need to manually add a new workspace. Pretty neat system.
-:6-) I've just installed F15 alpha in a virtualbox machine and at the first boot I
-get a gnome 3 error explaining that it can't be fully initialised because 3D is
-not supported.
-GNOME3 is not expected to work in virtualized environments where
-hardware accelerated graphics are not available.
-:7-)
-       From http://gnome3.org/faq.html ...
-        The GNOME 3 desktop does require hardware accelerated graphics
-        in order to provide a cutting-edge experience however, and the
-        complete GNOME 3 experience will only be available on computers
-        capable of this. Do not worry though: GNOME 3 will come complete
-        with a fallback interface which will provide an excellent
-        experience in the absence of hardware acceleration, and which
-        incorporates many of the improvements that can be found in GNOME
-.
-        -------------------------------------------
-       test Digest, Vol 85, Issue 60, Message: 7
-        It's kind of a definition issue. GNOME *Shell* requires acceleration.
-        But technically GNOME 3 does not; the fallback interface is still
-        considered to be 'GNOME 3'. So you do need acceleration to get the Shell
-        interface that's the 'big new thing' in GNOME 3, but still, if you don't
-        have acceleration and you get the fallback interface instead, what
-        you're running is still GNOME 3. Just GNOME 3's fallback interface.
-        Adam Williamson
-       Message: 8
-        In any case, VBox with 3d accelleration enables and 128MB for video memory
-        is not sufficient for GShell.  (VBox 4.0.4)
-       Message: 13
-        Also, on that last note, we should clarify that right now Shell doesn't
-        work even in virtualized environments where accelerated graphics *are*
-        available, e.g. VirtualBox with appropriate hardware and drivers. In
-        theory it should be possible to make this work, but in practice it
-        currently doesn't.
-        So there's two angles we can approach this from; make Shell run with
-        software GL, or fix up Shell to work with virtualized graphics
-        acceleration passthrough. But it's not at all guaranteed that we'll
-        manage either in time for f15.
