Screen Rotate
« Reply #15 on: April 07, 2004, 12:54:21 am »
I\'ve been exploring looking for feeds.  I\'ve tried the www.zaurususergroup.com/feed to get qt-embedded-rotation 2.3.2-4.  However, I don\'t know if this is the latest.  I\'d like to know if the Opie ipks on the site are useable under the Sharp ROM 1.32 for the 5600?

Where is the latest/best feed for the Sharp 1.32 ROM right now?  Thanks,
Dow

This is what you do:

1. Install version 0.0.1of the rotate app:

2. Install fonts for clockwise rotation, for example, this package:

http://zaurus.spy.org/feeds/docs-zaurus-co...2.3.2-4_arm.ipk

3. Optional step - check out these much nicer fonts:

Well I have found a fix for this kinda.

http://www.apex.net.au/~twalker/qtpalmtop/

If you upgrade to Qtopia 1.6.2 you get a setting for \'rotation\', and can do it any of the 4 ways and there is no 20 second delay

I have switched to using Zynergy\'s ROM as I think that\'s about the best one for me, but now with Qtopia 1.6.2 I\'ve lost all the things that made Zynergy so cool.   Who\'s up for updating the Zynergy ROM to Qtopia 1.6.2??   That would give us 5600 users a very nice ROM in my eyes.

What is actauly needed to be done to do something like this, and where can I find information on how to make ROMs?



I\'m using zynergy now, and so  far it\'s the most kick ass rom for my 5600. I would love to see an updated version of zynergy. Anyone have some screenshots of this qtopis 1.6.2? What version does zynergy5600 have??? A new version of zynergy would also be kick ass if it had the special kernel, and a decent mp3 player outta the box...
