==Installation==
 
 
 
As of 2012-03, Ubuntu does not have a complete, stable version of Sugar in the Ubuntu repositories.  In particular, there is no compatible web browser.
 
 
 
Until this is fixed, try one of these options:
 
* use [[Community/Distributions/Sweets_Distribution|Sweets]] on Ubuntu, recommended for Ubuntu 11.04, see [[#How_to_install_Sweets_on_Ubuntu|below]],
 
* use a virtual appliance, compatible with any version of Ubuntu, see [[#How_to_install_a_virtual_appliance|below]],
 
* use one of the many unstable versions, see far below, or
 
* install from Sugar source.
 
 
 
===How to install Sweets on Ubuntu===
 
 
 
Install packages on an Ubuntu system so that you may run Sugar.
 
 
 
See [[Community/Distributions/Sweets#Ubuntu_and_its_derivates|How to install Sweets on Ubuntu]].
 
 
 
===How to install a virtual appliance===
 
 
 
Install a virtual appliance based on Ubuntu:
 
 
 
*the [[Sugar_Creation_Kit#Ubuntu_11.04_sweets-distribution_sugar_0.94|Ubuntu 11.04 Sweets Distribution Sugar 0.94 virtual appliance]],
 
*a tutorial on [[Sugar_Creation_Kit/sck/VirtualBox_Import|How to Import a virtual Appliance into VirtualBox]].
 
 
 
There are other virtual appliances based on other distributions, which can be imported into virtualisation software on Ubuntu.
 
 
 
*see [[Emulator_image_files|Emulator image files]].
 
 
 
===How to install Sugar 0.88.1 on Ubuntu 11.10===
 
*Ubuntu has updated Software Center and now only 0.88.1 sugar is offered. Tested --[[User:Satellit|Satellit]] 14:44, 4 March 2012 (EST)
 
There are many problems with Sugar on Ubuntu, many of which have been fixed in a later version, so we recommend the [[#How_to_install_Sweets_on_Ubuntu|Sweets]] or [[#How_to_install_a_virtual_appliance|virtual appliance]] methods instead.
 
There is only firefox offered as a browser and it is not fully "sugarized" and will not install .xo files correctly as it cannot access the sugar-journal

*click on Ubuntu Software Center,
 
*search for Sugar,
 
*click on sugar-emulator
 
*click on Install.
 
*click and install other required applications
 
 
 
Sugar will be downloaded and installed.
