I have some applications that open from the launcher on my SL-C760 into portrait mode at 360X240 resolution. They do not have checkboxes to change the resolution that are accessible by holding the stylus on the icon. Obviously, there were meant to work on an older model Zaurus, and not one of the new VGA models.

However, if I execute the same application from the console, they open in 720x360/landscape mode without any problem. Why is it that launching an application from an icon in Qtopia's launcher forces this change in resolution and rotation? Is there anyway to launch the application from within Qtopia without it switching? Is this issue in any way related to SDL?

I have been able to change the resolution/rotation of applications from the launcher by adding the above line to the .desktop files, but I'm now wondering how one can return to the unmagnified/portrait display? Removing this line from .desktop files does not result in the files launching in their original resolution/rotation. I tried editing the display line, but to no effect. Even if I uninstall, and then reinstall an application it is now locked into the unmagnifed/landscape display. How do I get a program to return to running in its original magnified display on my SL-C760?
Moreover, I recall that when I originally purchased by Zaurus in Japan, I was able to change the resolution/rotation using the display checkbox that appears when one taps-holds on an icon. Now, none of my applications even display this option any longer. Is there a line that can be inserted into the .desktop file that will force the display of this option? Why did this option disappear from all my applications?
I've tried finding the answers to these questions here and throughout the WWW, but was unsuccessful. I would appreciate any advise. Thank you.
