I suspected my problem would be the same as geekboy's, so I added the same repo.
When I ran apt-get install sliderotate I dot a "The following packages have unmet dependancies:" and then a slew of packages and the advice to try apt-get -f install to fix it.

I'm trying that now.

Ok, when I did apt-get -f install, it processed for a little bit and then gave me this:
When I went to the Application Manager afterward and tried updating things, it downloaded sliderotate, then said 'installing' for a moment or two, then said unable to install sliderotate.

It gave:
So I tried running apt-get install sliderotate and it gave an error about the sliderotate 0.0.16 deb. Specifically, I may just wipe the device and rebuild it, but Id rather not.

I got all those errors when trying to install it as well, but in the end it was installed despite them.

At first I thought it was because I had installed rotation packages from elsewhere, but when my 810's touchscreen died I repeated things on my 800, and the same thing happened -- errors, but it was installed.

* shrug * Either way, it works great.

Automatic rotation works fine, its just the pageup pagedown remapping for the
[+ | -] rocker that dosent seem to work.

Do you have xmodmap installed?

Snoshrk | # 108 | 2008-05-21, 03:33 | Report

Ok, My goal is: only use the App Switch long press to rotate (N800)

I have changed all of the options above to "...=menu"

How do I make this change permanent?
Reboot doesn't seem to change anything...

I feel that I am missing something really obvious...


Thanks

Ok, I ended up just reflashing it and starting over from scratch. The install worked the first time, page scrolling and all.

Thanks for all the help!
