Yes:

.. or you can use Bert's script:

   wget dev.laptop.org/~bert/update-activities.py
   python update-activities.py

Run it as user olpc instead of root.

That, or

chmod +x update-activities.py
./update-activities.py

Looks like my user-switching hack does not work when run as "python  
update-activities.py".

Since my system came back with no activities (and a new bios) the only way to 
do something was ctrl-alt-f2.
Enter got me logged in as root. As such 
wget dev.laptop.org/~bert/update-activities.pyworked, then did
chmod +x update-activities.pyand 
./update-activities.py   same result as before (--> switching to user olpc 
...
> >> bash: update-activities.py: command not found)
switching to user olpc didn't help right away since now I couldn't see the file 
(belonging to root and being in root's ~) anymore... And I couldn't download it 
as olpc to its ~ because dev.laptop.org couldn't be resolved (as olpc)
So I turned root again and copied update-activities.py to /home/olpc, changed 
the owner 
chown olpc:olpc update-activities.py turned root again
su olpc  Then 
./update-activities.py worked (If this doesn't work for someone else, remember 
I did the 
chmod +x update-activities.py   early on...)
ctrl-alt-f3 got my back to the sugar interface

I encountered a bunch of "caution: excluded filename not matched: mimetype", 
but I don't know if this has any consequences.
The order of the activity Icons has greatly changed - is there a way for me to 
influence their order of appearance?
 
Thanks for the hints, I couldn't have done without.
Stefan

Ah. Thanks, I identified the problem: when you download the script to  
~root then the user olpc cannot read from that directory. It's better  
to download to ~olpc anyway so it survives the next system upgrade. I  
will remove the user-switching magic from the script, learned my  
lesson ;)

New instructions are:

su - olpc
wget dev.laptop.org/~bert/update-activities.py
python update-activities.py
