If someone can identify the device, I would be happy to work with them
to add the sensor as a plugin to Turtle Art.

If it works like the XO then you are looking for a file with 3 numbers in it 
which change if you rotate the laptop and re-read the file

another place to look might be /dev/input

http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Activities/TurtleArt#Device_I.2FO might help

it might help too if you can find the name of the bus or IC that the 
accelerometer connects through

I tried that example of Etoys  , but the script doesn't find the 
accelerometer.


The error said:"/An error has occurred in read of Accelerometer./"

On this Computer I don't have the device called
/sys/devices/platform/lis3lv02d/position

I don't Know where can I look the accelerometer

I Zipped the whole "/sys/devices/" directory  here:

2011-10-10 Thread forster 
Spanish translation follows

The accelerometer works in Turtle Art because the XO-1.75 operating system 
makes the data available to Activities in 

/sys/devices/platform/lis3lv02d/position

If the Magallanes MG2 operating system also does this then the accelerometer 
should work in Turtle Art. If not, you would need to find out how the 
Magallanes MG2 provides the data to Applications and do some patching to 
.../turtleart.activity/plugins/accelerometer.py

Traducción al español 

El acelerómetro funciona en Turtle Art, porque el sistema operativo hace que 
los datos disponibles a las Actividades en

 /sys/devices/platform/lis3lv02d/position

Si el sistema operativo Magallanes MG2, también lo hace entonces el 
acelerómetro debe trabajar en el arte de la Tortuga. Si no, tendría que 
averiguar cómo el modelo MG2 Magallanes proporciona los datos a las 
aplicaciones y hacer algunos parches a .../turtleart.activity 
/plugins/accelerometer.py
