Oh, if only it were so, Q...if only...
As an experiment, I pulled down Sugar, but it needs some other spices to work right on Ubuntu 8.0.4. Actually, it comes up fine as a session manager, but if you try to use its Hulahop browser, even with the package installed, its a "no go." Q seems perfectly okay with a conventional session manager, so I'm just going to let him go with the default Gnome session and Ubuntu OS until we find that it just can't do something that he absolutely needs.
