=== Fedora OLPC ===
 
The Fedora OLPC SIG, http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/OLPC, will be importing further activities into Fedora, which might later be installed using {{Code|yum install sugar-*}}
 
: Here's a video of the process [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKmrtlyyCFo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKmrtlyyCFo]
 
:: Chris Ball suggests: as root, run: {{Code|yum -y groupinstall "Sugar Desktop Environment"}}
 
The command to run Sugar is as root, otherwise you may get this [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=azKbRqr60Og behavior].
 
 
 
Launch sugar from a terminal or console session: {{Code|sugar-emulator}}
