| − | To try Sweets in practice, run several Sugar versions. On the Sweets level, there are not any restrictions to using Sweets on any GNU/Linux distribution. Successful usage depends only on the presence of PackageKit and the quality of sweet packages (sweets). For now, sugar sweets are well aware of Fedora, Debian/Ubuntu and Gentoo package names and not so well aware of openSUSE and Mandriva. Sugar sweets launchs were tested on some recent Fedora and Ubuntu releases. The quality of other GNU/Linux distribution support depends only on how often Sweets is used on these distributions and the reporting of problems by the community.
| + | There are Sugar Shell sweets as an example how to use Sweets in practice. See [[Platform_Team/Guide/Sweets_Usage#Sugar_via_Sweets|Sweets Usage]] guide for instructions. |

| − | Note, Sugar Shell does not start the authentication agent, and preparing sugar start can be processed only in a Desktop Environment, e.g., Gnome. To launch a recent stable Sugar version in emulator mode, type in a terminal:
| |
| − | | |
| − | sweets sdk/sugar:emulator
| |
| − | | |
| − | To run a particular version:
| |
| − | | |
| − | sweets sdk/sugar:emulator = 0.88
| |
| − | | |
| − | After that, it is possible to run Sugar via sweets from the [[Platform_Team/Guide/Sweets_Usage#Sugar_via_Sweets|X session]].
