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 [[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,
* use the unstable version 0.90 of Sugar, using the Ubuntu repositories, or;
* install from Sugar source.
 
==How to install a Sugar virtual appliance ==
 
This is covered in a section of the Sugar Creation Kit page:
 
*http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_Creation_Kit#Ubuntu_11.04_sweets-distribution_sugar_0.94
 
==How to install Sugar Desktop 0.90 on Ubuntu or Edubuntu 11.10==
 
*Install the sucrose-0.90 package using Ubuntu Software Centre, or by command line:
 
sudo aptitude install sucrose-0.90
 
Only comes with Pippy and TurtleArt activities. You can download more Activities from [[http://activities.sugarlabs.org/| activites.sugarlabs.org ]] from outside of Sugar and install each .xo bundle individually in a terminal with:
 
sugar-install-bundle activity.xo
 
To run Sugar fullscreen:
*Go to the menu Applications->Education->sugar
*Drag and drop the Sugar icon to the desktop
