<div dir="ltr">Hi,<br><br>I just installed build 708 on an XO and also installed the standard set of activities using the script provided at <a href="http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Bert%27s_script">http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Bert%27s_script</a>. <br>
<br>I can launch activities using their UI icons, but when I try to launch activities from the terminal using sugar-launch, I get the error below. Does anyone know why this is happening and how to fix it (couldn't find anything online that illuminated things :( ). <br>
