Sorry - my previous response was from the *Terminal*, not the Journal. 
However, I get the same result (the XO just sits there) from the Journal 
after typing in the URL and pressing Enter.

What I have been able to do is download it in Browse and show it in the 
Journal (and "light its star"). Clicking on Start, however, does nothing, 
nor does it show up as an Activity on my Home page nor in my List of 
Activities.

Hi Art,

You can get to a terminal either by running the terminal activity or
by pressing Ctrl+Alt+F1. You can then run csound normally.

It must be a typo, or a wireless network issue. There's no reason for
this from the XO software.

Navigating the system is very different, you don't have the desktop
metaphor, but the journal. It's actually nice once you get used to it.
You can navigate the folder as usual from the shell using the cd
command. The problem is that stored files are not usually easy to find
from here if they were created by sugar.

Cheers,
Andrés
