 At this point is seems incredibly difficult for novices to use USB2VGA
 dongles on XO. Even the instructions under the wiki require the
 recompilation of the kernel, something better accomplished by experienced
 linux users. Under Ubuntu working with USB2VGA devices that use the
 SISUSBVGA module is quite (almost) straightforward.

 If the sisusbvga module could be included with the next system update,
 then on our part we could write instructions on how to modify the
 xorg.conf file to project the Sugar interface on an external projector.
