Was just a quick test, works on mine, but i'll figure out why not on others
No idea what i'm putton on that page yet, so not concentrating on layout until i know what i need to lay out.

Hey everyone, coding question....
Looking at calling some commands that need root on the device....
running this command on my phone via my python app works... but doesn't seem to work elsewhere....
Should i
a) not be calling commands like this.... (Would kinda scupper my plans!!)
b) be doing it a different way
c) something else... lol

I think that will depend if you guys have modified your sudoers file for something else previously.
Normally I don't think running sudo "command" on the N900 will work even with rootsh..
Rootsh allows you to run "sudo gainroot" to get root, then the command. Sudo <commands> still ask for a password (in my understanding.)
So what you would want normally I think would be something like:
and depend your app on rootsh.. although I don't think depending on rootsh is a good idea.
There must be some kind of API in dbus or somewhere to tell the device to reboot properly instead of running shell commands.
