The activities can be loaded direct to a users datastore (rather than
through a distro repo) using 'Browse'[*] from here:
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Activities/All
and
http://sugarlabs.org/go/Activities

It is 'hit and miss' which work, but I know paint and x2o do work as my
daughter enjoys playing these.

[* Providing that Browse actually works now.... I don't dare update her
machine!!!]


My hope is that _all_ the activities for 'Fructose' will be packaged for
Ubuntu before 9.04, as this represents the pre-installed activities on the
real XO machine.
