Zubuntu Rotation - Doesn't On Sl-c860 Options

[zmike]

Regarding rotation, I saw some references to x11-xserver-utils and xrandr to get rotation working.
I have both but changing the orientation of my SL-C860 doesn't do anything.

Is there something I'm missing?

Thanks!

I suspect the /etc/zaurusd/... scripts aren't correct for the SL-Cxx0 models, and I don't know how to fix them (you could try taking them from Angstrom, I believe they work there).

Have you tried manually doing the rotation, eg:

CODE

xrander -o n

where 0 <= n <= 3?

I think the problem is with the X authorization. Run:

CODE

xhost +

this will enable free access to the X server.
Also, I don't remember, but I think the states were switched in /etc/zaurusd/scripts/zaurus-hinge.conf in my case state 0 is landscape and state 2 is portrait.

update:
After rebooting there was no problem with the authorization.
