the c3100's cursor pad was rotated 90 degrees (up/down act as left/right on the screen, but correct if the zaurus screen were ripped off and fitted portrait mode), so I installed the rotateview app, and then the cursor pad rotated as well as the screen, so that now right moves cursor up!
any quick fixes? thanks! |

(nudge, hint!) The uploading of a new C3x00 version is delayed a bit, but I'll try to incorporate the key changes tonight. I haven't been able to set the rotation to landscape on default so that's left to be fixed also. |
