<noinclude></noinclude>
 +
Please see the [http://activities.sugarlabs.org '''Sugar Activity Library'''] for a nearly complete list of activities that are available for Sugar.
   −
Sugar applications are called [http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Activities Activities]. This is a list of some Activities that are installed by default. There is a proposal for an [[Activity portal]].
+
== Learners ==
 +
(Sugar users are '''''learners'''''.)
    +
Learner applications in Sugar are called '''[[Human Interface Guidelines/Activities | Activities]]'''.  They are software packages that automatically save your work&mdash;producing specific instances of the Activity that can be resumed at a later time. A specific Activity instance is a [[Human_Interface_Guidelines/The_Laptop_Experience/The_Journal| Journal]] event (see this discussion of [[Human_Interface_Guidelines/The_Laptop_Experience/The_Journal#The_Notion of "Keeping"|The Notion of "Keeping"]]).  Many Activities support learner [[Collaboration|collaboration]], where multiple learners may be invited to join a collective Activity session.

The  [[Activity Team]]'s [[Activity Team/FAQ|Frequently Asked Questions]] page has many developer-oriented questions, but Sugar Learners should post their general Activity-related questions to the team [[Talk:Activity Team/FAQ |on this page]].  Questions about a specific Activity should be posted on the discussion page for that Activity available below.

=Running Linux Applications Under Sugar=
+
Below is a list of activity home pages: 
 +
{{Special:PrefixIndex/{{PAGENAME}}/}}
   −
There are two ways to run Linux applications as Activities under Sugar (meaning you don't need to use Terminal to load them):
+
== Running GNU/Linux Applications Under Sugar ==
*'''Sugar Coating''' - Making Linux apps run under Sugar, but not modifying them to take advantage of Sugar's collaborative capabilities
  −
*'''Sugarizing''' - A fully integrated Linux application, re-engineered to take advantage of Sugar's advanced collaboration abilities
     −
===Sugar Coating Activities===
+
See [[Running Linux Applications Under Sugar]] for a discussion of traditional GNU/Linux applications in Sugar.
   −
To run Linux apps under Sugar (i.e. making them to run in the Sugar interface, without the collaboration and other Sugar integration programmed into them), read these instructions on [[Running Linux Applications Under Sugar]].
     −
===Sugarizing Activities===
     −
To be written.

===Installing VLC Media Player===
  −
 
  −
VLC media player is a highly portable multimedia player for various audio and video formats (MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, DivX, mp3, flv, avi, ogg, ...) as well as DVDs, VCDs, and various streaming protocols.
  −
 
  −
It can also be used as a server to stream in unicast or multicast in IPv4 or IPv6 on a high-bandwidth network.
  −
 
  −
The VLC Player is considered to be better by some users then MPlayer because it offer more settings, options and features. There is also no need to run it from Terminal. Read [[Activity_VLC]] to learn how to install it.
