Sugar emulation showing OLPC

Sugar emulation showing OLPC by karindalziel.
I'm going to give a presentation on the OLPC, so I wanted to run an emulator on my laptop so I can show it while presenting (the OLPC does not have video out).

I followed the instructions on this page: wiki.laptop.org/go/Sugar_on_Ubuntu_Linux

Including the instructions for changing the size of the emulation here: wiki.laptop.org/go/Sugar-jhbuild#Configure_the_mode_and_r...

I had to do this because the OLPC's native resolution of 1200 x 900 is greater than the resolution of most laptops and projectors.

One other thing that went wrong: I had to change permissions on the ~/.sugar folder to allow the program to create folders. I don't know why (I could not find anything on the internet about this) but it worked. 

Would you like to comment?
