Yesterday I downloaded Blueberry and attempted to run it to find that several
activities were missing: Turtle Art, the TamTam apps and Terminal among
others. They are neither on the home screen nor on the list view.
I went digging this morning and they are on the stick in

Does anybody have any pull with HP? For some incomprehensible reason they
refuse to deliver the Mini 110 to Haiti. According to my vendor in Haiti,
they won't even sell them 12 units FOB Miami. So we're now way behind as
we're trying to find another supplier. I've suggested ZaReason to the

I made a similar suggestion a couple of weeks back.
Thinking as someone who will probably be in it up to his neck, on the
teaching side, what I would like to see is a polished distribution,
installable on a hard disk, released once a year around April-May. That will

Why not treat Sugar as a distribution in its own right. As in: Sugar
is a GNU/Linux distribution with Sucrose as it's user interface. It
seems to me you're generally drifting in that direction. With Soas
it's now treated more or less as a spin/remix so it's not that much
of an extension.
As an
I am happy to report that I finally have Sugar installed on a hard
disk. In the end, an OpenSUSE Soas was successfully put on the hard
disk of the HP Mini 110. I can now proceed and put things in motion
to deploy come September.
I have greatly appreciated the help I got on the list and on IRC.
OK! So I'm covered. :-)
Thanks

Just added this ticket hoping it will help resolve the issue. I'd
like to be able to move forward but so far the only thing that
appears to work is Soas.
BTW if I add a driver to Soas while running it, does it stay on the
stick? I tend to think that only user changes are permanent.

Thanks for the suggestion but it's not working. I've been trying for
