Not quite sure how it happened, but I downloaded and installed braek and then ran it

then I went into the desktop editor (to try and move it thinking it was like a widget) and I sort of got locked into the desktop editor and couldnt close it and I pressed the power button and pressed the phone button and I turned the phone to portrait to close the phone dialler down and I did it as it flipped to portrait mode and everything stayed in portrait mode

all the desktops were stuck in portrait mode and no amount of twiddling etc would switch it back to landscape

a quick reboot put everything back to normal

it was quite funny seeing everything in portrait mode though

Known glitch.

Yeah, if you google, you'll find a few articles posted weeks back about it. =)

Ahh didnt realise ive only had the phone a few days, so I wouldnt have seen things from a few weeks ago

Is it the braek software that caused this or just a known glitch with maemo ?
