| | | :Ubuntu educational software |
| You have an Ubuntu system and you wish to try Sugar?
| | ::https://sourceforge.net/projects/cyberorg-home/files/Li-f-e/ |
| | |
| As of 2012-02, Ubuntu does not have a stable version of Sugar in the Ubuntu repositories. Until this is fixed, your choices are:
| |
| * use the unstable version 0.90 of Sugar, using the Ubuntu repositories,
| |
| * use [[Community/Distributions/Sweets_Distribution|Sweets]] on Ubuntu,
| |
| * switch to the [[Community/Distributions/Trisquel|Trisquel distribution]],
| |
| * switch to [[Community/Distributions|some other distribution]],
| |
| * use a virtual appliance, or;
| |
| * install from Sugar source.
| |

| ==Introduction==

| |
| #Existing Ubuntu-based Sugar Spins. A Sugar Spin is a Linux distribution which uses Sugar as its default desktop environment.
| |
| #How to install Sugar for your Ubuntu desktop. It is dependent on your Ubuntu's release version and the Sugar version you are going to install.
