Sound?
I've installed sugar-jhbuild on my Ubuntu machine, and it looks like an application that should play sound (memosono) doesn't, at least out-of-the-box. Audio also doesn't seem to work when running OLPC images in an emulator. Is extra software required? Or does audio development require developing on the actual hardware? —Leejc 23:27, 15 February 2007 (EST)
