As of Update.1, we'll have separated the operating system updates from the activity updates, which may initially give the appearance of activities disappearing. The customization key process (See Customization key) is intended to facilitate customization of activities; also Bert Freudenberg has written a script to install the default set of activities:

     http://dev.laptop.org/~bert/update-activities.py

Getting the activities back is then as simple as:

su - olpc
wget dev.laptop.org/~bert/update-activities.py
python update-activities.py

Which works from the ctrl-alt-Mesh key f1 small.png console.
