== Using APT-GET ==
{{warning|Activities do not seem to function.  They seem to timeout before starting.  Do you really want to run an old version of sugar on your pi?}}
A old version of Sugar ([[0.96/Notes|Sugar 0.96]]) can be found in the Raspbian repositories.  You can install it with:
    sudo apt-get install sucrose-0.96
Then set sugar as your desktop environment by opening/creating ''~/.xinitrc''.  Set this file to:
    sugar-emulator -f
Now whenever you ''startx'' you will have the delights of Sugar 0.96.
If you want to use activities other than Turtle Blocks or Pippy, you will need Browse to access the ASLO.  You can install Browse by running:
    wget http://download.sugarlabs.org/activities/4024/browse-129.1.xo
    sugar-install-bundle browse-129.1.xo
