I am really sorry, but could someone please give even easier diretions, because every thing I try doesn't work. My main problem I think is the flashing, but i have no idea what is wrong
never mind
Here's a script to xmodmap the dpad and rotate the screen. Also included is the xrandr binary, which is a CLI for the RandR extension, and is used by the script. Install them both to executable places (I put xrandr in /usr/bin, and rotate.sh in /home/user/apps) and invoke as:
Code:
rotate.sh [ cw | ccw | normal | left | inverted | right ]
EDIT: Use the script below, if you want to be able to rotate one notch clockwise or counterclockwise from current position.
EDIT: Script rezipped; now this zip contains the most recent version of the script, able to rotate one notch clockwise or counterclockwise from current position.
i typed that command in xterm but it tells not found. I installed xmodmap , put both files in correct location , what exactly should I type to assign a button for that rotate.sh script?
2timer, pretty sure you have to set permissions for those files. see this post: http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...2&postcount=41
If you don't know how to set permissions like me, just search wikipedia for chmod, it will tell you the usage.
Hey when i type into x terminal:
tar zxvf kernel-2.2007.50-2-rotation.tar.gz
it says "tar: can't open 'kernel-2.2007.50-rotation.tar.gz' : No such file in directory"
I am nervous to brick my n810 trying to make the screen rotation happen! Will there ever be a 'click here to install' application for the screen rotation?
