To setup your XO, open the terminal activity and type:

Restart Sugar/X (ctrl-alt-erase) and you will connect to the Jabber server.

Starting November 12, One Laptop Per Child will be offering a Give 1 Get 1 Program for a brief window of time in North America. For $399, you will be purchasing two XO laptops—one that will be sent to empower a child to learn in a developing nation, and one that will be sent to your child at home.
