We present some exact scalar potentials for the dimensionally reduced theory and examine the possibility of obtaining accelerating 4d cosmology from String/M-theory, more generally, hyperbolic and flux compactification. In the hyperbolic case, even in the zero-flux limit, the scalar potential is positive for the 4d effective theory as required to get an accelerating universe, and thereby evading the ``no-go theorem'' given for static internal space. When we turn on the gauge fields as source terms at the cosmological background with potential V\propto exp(-2c\phi), we find eternally accelerating cosmologies when the 4d space-time is flat and c\geq 1, or hyperbolic and 1
