* Sugar 0.92.1 has a bug with jabber.sugarlabs.org
  The large number of avitars being sent cause long delays on starting activities. dbus timeouts.
  If CP/Network does not start here, it is not possible to delete the jabber entry.
  It is possible to do this with the old terminal OLPC command:
:Commands:
  sugar-control-panel -l ( Lists commands )
  sugar-control-panel -s jabber ""
        suggested by Cerlyn  ("" is null string which forces salut )
To check setting change:
  sugar-control-panel -g jabber (which lists current setting to see if it is changed. Shows blank line)
* MY Settings/About Me/ click on different color avitar; restart; gdm log in and jabber will not be a problem
*'''after using the Ad-hoc connection; disconnecting and connecting to the Access Point; you must restart sugar to get jabber to reconnect.'''
