Thanks, all, for the informative answers. Another good answer came from Mark Waite, who forgot to copy the mailing list: the Python platform module provides some useful functions. I need to know the platform so that I can adjust the GUI. For example, on the N800, I probably want to open in fullscreen mode. It appears that I will also have to adjust spacing of some GUI elements. For now, I am using platform.machine(), although I still wonder why one of os.name or sys.platform doesn't return "maemo". -- Jeffrey Barish _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
