If I run this, the screen rotates to display correctly while my monitor is rotated:

xrandr --output DVI --rotate left

However, it has some limitations. The screen updates rather slowly, because my system doesn't seem to support rotation in hardware. And, if I try to use a video overlay while rotated, the system seems to lock up.

So, the intel video driver needs some work, but the functionality does at least exist.]]> Fri, 29 Feb 2008 22:43:14 +0000 yes, it works, as long as you have:

Option "RandRRotation" "on"
Option "Rotate" "CW"
Option "Rotate" "CCW"

In your xorg.conf (not by default, or it's lost on screen resolution change). After that is in the file, a simple xrandr --rotate left / right / normal turns the screen. Whould be nice to check when that options are lost and fix that.]]> Sat, 01 Mar 2008 01:13:38 +0000
