I think emjayes is the closest with automatic rotation. But is it really that hard to install? I've done 7 installs of rotation with no problem.

Can't go sideways? is that a "KDE doesn't know what to do with 480px width"? or the display won't rotate at all?
I know XV doesn't work in portrait mode, but I'd have thought K would get by fine...
I am still playing

What am I doing wrong? The install goes through the motions and then complains about not enough memory. The internal memory went from ~40M down to 1kb. I have a 2G SD card in the external slot that was empty other than the .deb install file. I ran it again after clearing more space but I'm down to no space again. I have the boot menu but of course it won't boot off SD. The SD card doesn't appear to have been touched. I've now uninstalled it but still have the boot menu. Can I at least remove whatever is taking up my internal memory?
N800 with OS2008
edit->I did the suggested update but quickly came up with not enough memory.

I'm reflashing it and I will try it again and let you know if it's ok by editing or deleting this post.
So it hosed your flash install? Or the SD card would not boot? did it install bootmenu. ALSO please send me the log from application manager

@IcelandDreams, if this script works in the same way as others, unmount /opt and go in and rm -rf /opt/* (for your 1kb problem if you can boot rootfs or mount the rootfs over ssh/telnet)

TO FIX
open xterm
(you will need to become root)
rm -rf /device/*
if its full, its because the mount failed because the SD card was in use. So it started the tar, and filled up your flash in /device
Then put the deb on flash somewhere, like documents, then run it again.
Ouch, I just did not see that one coming

thanks again for your efforts to bring new stuff to the IT
EDIT : I ALSO HAD THE MEMORY FULL MESSAGE THEN RESTARTED THE .DEB; is it possible the script don't like to be stopped during process ?
Where are you placing the DEB? put it on flash NOT on the SD CARD

It makes sense not to put the deb on the SD but I've done similar things in the past with the understanding that the file would go away but the load happened anyway. So I'm trying it again after regaining space on the internal memory.
Thanks.
Thanks.

reflashed the device to OEM, the DEB is in flash and again got a not enough memory on target location error; card corrupted, reformated within file manager
