If you say this, i can complete this question knowing Python on your own? I wanted to study with gui framework :), as they say, practice right away

The name of your platform is wrong. It is supposed to return linux instead of haiku1. Kivy will not understand which platform you are using if you stay with haiku1.

Well, Aiku is a legitimate platform, if very niche, but we don't support it at the moment, maybe support is easy to provide, maybe it's not, but none of the core developers use Aiku, as far as i know, and no one tried to make it work. You are welcome trying to add support for it, if your changes don't add too much complexity, but don't expect much help doing so, as we don't know the specificities of Aiku-OS compared to Linux or other platforms.
