You have an Ubuntu system and you wish to try Sugar?
 
 
 
==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 [[Sweets_Distribution|Sweets]] on Ubuntu, 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 the incomplete version that Ubuntu provide, see the last section 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 [[Sweets Distribution#Installation|How to install Sweets Distribution]].
 
 
 
===How to install a virtual appliance===
 
 
 
Install a virtual appliance based on Ubuntu:
 
 
 
*the [[Sugar_Creation_Kit/sck/Sugar-in-Virtualization#Ubuntu_11.04_Sweets_Distribution_sugar_0.94|Ubuntu 11.04 Sweets Distribution Sugar 0.94 virtual appliance]],
 
*a tutorial on [[Tutorials/Installation/Import a VirtualBox appliance|How to import a virtual appliance into VirtualBox]].
 
 
 
There are other virtual appliances based on other distributions, which can be imported into virtualization software on Ubuntu.
 
 
 
*see [[Sugar_Creation_Kit/sck/Sugar-in-Virtualization|Emulator image files]].
 
 
 
===How to install Sugar on Ubuntu ===
 
 
 
There are many problems with Sugar on Ubuntu (see [[/0.90|a list for 0.90]]), many of which have been fixed in a later version of Sugar, so we recommend the [[#How_to_install_Sweets_on_Ubuntu|Sweets]] or [[#How_to_install_a_virtual_appliance|virtual appliance]] methods above instead.
 
 
 
In particular, there is no compatible web browser included, though there is a [[/0.90#Problem:_Browse_activity_does_not_work|workaround]].
 
 
 
However, if you wish to to install Sugar on Ubuntu:
 
 
 
*click on Ubuntu Software Center,
 
*search for Sugar,
 
*click on sugar-emulator or sugar,
 
*click on Install,
 
*if asked about other required applications, click to install.
 
 
 
Sugar will be downloaded and installed.
 
 
 
To start Sugar, click on Applications, then Education, then Sugar.
 
 
 
See [[Emulator/Full Screen|how to create a desktop icon that runs Sugar full screen]].
 
 
 
See [[Ubuntu/Previous]] for how to install older versions of Sugar on older versions of Ubuntu using Ubuntu Software Center.
