About Herbert
Herbert is a college student from Swarthmore College (currently on leave for the semester, and thus with lots of free time to play with her XO). She is in love with Joey, her little XO, who accompanies her near everywhere she goes. She finds it especially useful for long commutes, note taking, and term paper writing.
Herbert is also an active participant of OLPC_Learning_Club_D.C..
Useful XO Hacks
- Full Abiword within Write
- Updating the XO
- Changing the XO user icon altogether
- Copying files to/from the Journal
- Disabling mouse-initiated frame (In particular, see post #5)
- Sugar Control Panel (instructions for changing the nickname, color scheme, jabber server, language, and time)
- Installing Adobe Flash
- Adding shortcuts for non-sugar programs to the Activity Launcher
Useful Links
- LinuxCommand.org - A great introduction to linux commands for the complete novice - very clear and straightforward.
- How to Think Like a (Python) Programmer - A free introductory textbook for Python that I am currently using. Clear, enjoyable, with many good examples and exercises.
