'''Launching Sugar'''
 
 
 
With sugar-desktop and sugar-emulator installed you have two ways of running Sugar.
 
 
 
1. To launch the Sugar Desktop Environment (also known as a Sugar session) you must reboot.
 
[[File:F20-Beta-TC2_gdm.png|right|200px]]
 
When you reboot Fedora, at the point where you login, login screen, a "Sugar" entry will now be present, maybe hidden, usually in the lower part of the login prompt, under a "settings icon" or under "Session Type".
 
 
 
''Note, the "Sugar" entry in the login screen may not be very obvious at first, and the look will depend on the login manager on your system. This image shows the "Sugar" entry being selected in Fedora 20. Click the image to enlarge.''
 
 
 
Select "Sugar" within the login prompt, enter your password, and '''Enter''', and the computer will boot into Sugar Desktop Environment.
 
 
 
 
 
2.The Sugar emulator will be available (no restart required) from the Applications Menu, Select Education, Select Sugar
 
 
 
Sugar will run in a [[wikipedia:Xephyr|Xephyr]] window, Sugar in a window, within your current desktop environment. You will have full access to Sugar features, and may even run multiple instances. Networking bugs may currently prevent collaboration with others in the jabber.sugarlabs.org server Neighborhood. Press key '''F1''' to see the Sugar Neighborhood view.
 
: See [[The_Undiscoverable#Sugar-Emulator_Screen_Size_Adjustment|emulator screen size adjustment]].
 
 
 
''Note'' sugar-emulator does not exist in Fedora 20. A replacement (sugar-runner?) is still being developed. As a result there will be no entry in the Education menu for Sugar. The Sugar Desktop Environment is unaffected.
 
 
 
===Fedora Sugar on a Stick Spin===
 
Sugar is pre-installed in a  Live CD Fedora Spin that can be fully installed, if desired.
