If you followed the method described in wiki, you don't have sliderotate installed.
You will have to install the kernel an xserver-xomap again as instructed in the wiki or
uninstall becomeroot and click this:
becomeroot conflicts with rootsh, which is a dependency in sliderotate.
Both provide basically the same effects, but since there is no need for an extra repository for rootsh I prefer that over becomeroot.
Perfect, thanks. One last question, what are the advantages or disadvantage to each?
Alright, well I followed the steps in the wiki again. Did the diablo update make any changes to the kernel? Did I just overwrite them with an old kernel?
guys i need help in fixing the rotation on my n800. i had previously installed rotation even before the wiki was made and i am not sure which of the instructions i followed but i got it working nicely.
the latest diablo SSU update broke my rotation, now it only rotates the touch area and not the image. i tried reinstalling libxrandr and xomap under red pill but still no joy.
thanks for the quick reply, i installed the sliderote from your link but my rotation is still broken, only the touch area is rotated. app manager tells me it successfully installed sliderotate but i did not find any settings on the control panel..
I have no idea why this would not work. I had to do a reflash and start from scratch but I've got the rotation working! This breathes new life into my N810!
Dumb question, but I still cannot get the last package, kernel-diablo... to install. It needs flash-and-reboot. I belive I've added the proper Extras repository and issued apt-get -f install but it just won't resolve this issue. Is there someplace I can manually download this package?
