- Sugar running on the Nokia N810
Hey all,
This past week I managed to do something quite interesting. I got sugar, running on my Nokia N810, compiled for armel.
The trick that made it work was thanks to easy Debian chroot, that got me access to installing sugar without a few good hours of compilation for arm (and I did that before).
Touchscreen is cool!
The first thing that I found pretty neat was running sugar on a touchscreen device. It really felt better, since most people that I let play with my XO and flip its screen 180 degrees naturally try touching the screen, expecting it had a touchscreen. Sugar was actually quite good with it on the Nokia.

The OLPC system
Hey all,
After a few days work, I have finished Building a LiveCD that, by booting from it. You would get a full sugar system, no installation required.
Where to get?
Here, in the Sugarlabs Wiki 🙂
