All MeeGo compliant installs should have the /etc/meego-version file, this can be used to detect you're running on a MeeGo instance and also the version indicates the APIs you probably have available. Detecting whether you're on a Handset, Tablet or IVI is slightly more difficult, the only way I can think of is by checking for specific libraries.

BTW, when MeeGo switches to Systemd it will probably use the new generic standard file /etc/os-release. But that will be for MeeGo 1.3 I guess.

Hello Guys,
if you are using Power Kernel, the best way to try meego is to copy the image on the sd-card and flash the Kernel with Maemo Flasher temporaly! After this little flash command it boots up and you can try it out, without the danger of running in trouble with uboot/power-kernel or NITDroid, BUT: You have to use the Flasher everytime for boot Meego up.
Can you be more specific, I have the image on the SD card now, but I'm not so keen on installing the uboot om my power kernel 46.
Do you really mean "flash the Kernel", or do you mean that the maemo flasher instructs the n900 to boot from the SD card "on the fly" so to speak?
Do you have a more detailed command line to demonstrate what you mean?

Just tried this image: mg-handset-armv7nhl-n900-de-acceptance-1.1.99.2.20110412.6.DE.2011-04-15.1
I really like the overall fludness of meego, really nice and smooth, makes me want to make sweet love with it
Any other images i should give a try?

http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/N900/Insta...kernel_on_N900
so '$ sudo flasher-3.5 -l -k <kernel> -b' will load you the kernel that boots MeeGo from SD card. After reboot, you're back in your regular configuration.
