How to run sugar on ArchLinux

[lite li]

Hi, James,

I checked the shell.log under .sugar, and I got the answer from:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/325706

After run this:
  gconftool-2 -s /desktop/sugar/desktop/favorites_layout -t string ring-layout

The Sugar and Etoys works on archlinux with sugar-unstable package.

Thanks,
