What version of the XO system are you running?  "Build 767 " or
"Release 8.2.0" was the current version per
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Support before www.sugarlabs.org was the
sole developer of Sugar.  There is a newer "Release 8.2.1"
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Release_Notes/8.2.1 or "build 802" but most
pages on laptop.org haven't been updated yet.  Do a "cat
/etc/olpc-release" to check your machine.  I would love to stop by and
help with your project, just let me know.
