Jigish,
I did a new installation of openSUSE 11.1 on my PC. I deleted all the
existing partitions and started over, so absolutely nothing remains from
the previous upgrade. I ran your commands and it gave the same
complaint about sugar-activities, that it couldn't install etoys. I
took option 1 to deal that complaint and wound up with a working
installation of Sugar with just a Journal and no Activities. I tried
installing just sugar-activities, got the same complaint, and this time
chose option 2, which ignores some missing dependencies. This seemed to
install some things, including abiword, but when I tried to run
sugar-emulation I still got Sugar with a Journal but no Activities are
visible.
I haven't tried installing my own Activities yet. If that works then
what I have working should be of some use to me. I'd really like those
other Activities to be there, though.
In your email you said *some* Activities don't work, and I assumed you
meant you were missing etoys. You're doing better than I am, so I have
to wonder what you're doing that I am not?
Finally, I'd like to thank you and the others who tried to help me with
this!
