Well, if you have an activity already working in sugar-jhbuild, you can
test it on the XO by copying the activity dir (for example web-activity)
to /home/olpc/Activities/Web.activity.

If you have any more problems, consider asking in the #sugar channel in
irc.freenode.net (there's some portuguese speaking people even!).
