[Olpc-socal] Sugar & GDM on Ubuntu - Re: Apple iBooks Clamshell

[Whizman Software Solutions]

We are pleased to say that Sugar is now running on Ubuntu-Lucid-10.04 for us.
As far as I can tell, the versions of Sugar we have are the same as
originally reported in
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/542338
To the best of my understanding, it started working after Ubuntu updates
applied a patch to gdm

Idea: try education-desktop-sugar on Debian on PPC.
If you have a chance to try that, I would be very interested to hear
the result.  We have no PPC hardware, and we have tried sugar-emulator
on Ubuntu, only, not on other distros.

In our testing, Sugar worked in Ubuntu 10.04alpha, both as a session and
when started as an application under GNOME; but no longer worked under
10.04beta nor 10.04 release.
