  For the general public

XO applications are called Activities. On this page you will find details about both Preinstalled activities and other activities that you can install yourself. There is detailed information about individual activities in this wiki—most of the activities listed below include a link to this detailed information. There is also general information about activities on the laptop.org website.

Note that this page lists all activities. Not all activities are yet usable, particularly the ones that do not ship with the laptop. Many are untranslated, buggy, or otherwise problematic. As this is a wiki, you are encouraged to create a page listing the activities which you have tested with local children or some other audience. Also, please contribute to the Activity guidelines page.

To install an activity:

  1. start the Browse activity on your XO;
  2. go to this page in the browser;
  3. click on the .xo bundle next to the word Download:, e.g., click on Implode.xo to download Implode;
  4. when it's finished, click OK.
  5. press the Home key (Home key f3 small.png) (fifth from the upper left) to see the taskbar.
  6. scroll the taskbar to the right (by clicking on the arrow Frame-scroll-right.gif) until you see the icon for the activity; click on it to start.

To remove an activity you have previously installed:

  1. remove the download entry in the Journal (from the detail view). It will be removed from the taskbar after you restart your XO.

Other ways to install and remove activities include xo-get and sugar-install-bundle. See Activities#Manual_installation

Some additional collections of activity and content are available; please see the library grid, the WorldWideWorkshop, and the GCompris collection. In addition, there are activities that can be loaded into Etoys available from The Software Architecture Group at HPI.


You can add new activities by following the instructions on the Creating an activity page (Please be sure to read our human interface guidelines). When adding your new activity to this page, please follow the template syntax as described on the Template:Activity page.

ExecCommand.svg ExecCommand: A very simple utility. On launch, this activity either launches a predefined Unix command, or starts an graphical dialog and queries the user for what command to run. Useful for starting vncviewer or xmms.
To see an example of this activity modified to just start XMMS, check out Xmms.xo. All that was modified was bin/exec-script.sh, activity/activity.info (for the name), and activity/icon.svg. Of course, this requires XMMS
Download: ExecCommand.xo (v.1)
