 I recently created Sugar on a USB stick from Soas-200902061045.iso, and
 have no problem booting into Sugar-0.83.X/Fedora 10 on my laptop, an Eee
 PC 1000HA.  The terminal and a small sampling of Fedora commands seem to
 be working O.K.

 From the Sugar homepage, if I click on "Browse", the icon "oscillates"
 color for a couple of minutes, and then comes to rest under Stickman on
 the Sugar Hompage.  At no point am I taken to the "Browse" Homepage, where
 I can enter a URL.

 If I go to the F1 view, I can see a locked orange globe, and moving the
 cursor over the globe a small window opens, correctly identifying the name
 of the wireless, and giving me the option "Connect".  When I click on
 "Connect", the globe "oscillates" in color and says "Connecting", but it
 does not connect.  At no point does a window open to allow me to type in
 my WAP password.

 The basic operating system on the computer is Windows XP, and I can access
 the wireless and the internet without problems from this OS.  I also run
 Ubuntu 8.10/Intrepid from an SD card on this same computer, and I again
 have no problem accessing the internet thru the wireless.

 Sugar 8.2.0 on my XO has no problem accessing the wireless and the
 internet.

 Is there any other information that I can give you to help resolve this
 issue?

 Thank you.
