Edit: Thanks to nemo for the following instructions:

From one noob to the others.

I've had my tablet for a week now and it's been my first real experience with linux. Someone asked for noob friendly instructions for screen rotation, and, after reading this entire thread I've managed to get it to work...so to show my thanks I figured I'd post step by step instructions for those with no linux experience.

All that being said, these instructions were all found here in this thread. Thanks to everyone who worked to make this possible!

7. Say thanks to the wonderful folks who made it this easy for the rest of us.

There it is, sorry it's so long.

Cool, also would be nice if it was possible without flashing...

it's only the kernel, you don't lose the configs, programs or any data. Bye!

I read that if you let the device go to sleep while using the rotate feature, the screen goes blue, and you are left having to reboot.
Is this fix?

I just tried to sleep with screen rotated, and there's no problem. I think that it's fixed. bye!

Well, lets go swimming then....

You should be able to flash the kernel on the device with Fanoush's kernel-flasher.

With the existing software (and xmodmap, for the d-pad) upside-down should work for lefties. I'm gonna have to do this to experiment with the portrait modes...

AWESOME! Works great. Potraitmode is great for Canola, MaemoMapper and microb for a few websites!

Any chance fanoush will include this into his kernel?

exelent... thanks
