Re: Automatic screen rotate for N810
 
Firstly which version of the operating system are you running? If its one beginning with 4.something do not flash the kernel, itnwas designed for the previous version and will cause your tablet not to boot. If you are running the version beggining 3.something and dowloaded the one click install from the first post in this thread the do the following:
gain root then type
/root/install-xrandr-kernel
Then reboot
Hope that helps

Chinook is fine, Diablo (the new OS) wont work with it yet. Go ahead and follow the inhstructions for the on tablet flashing given on the first page.

Thanks. Got it working. But how do I make it flip right instead of left?
I like it better that way.

Ok, another newbie question. Where do I find the sliderotate script?

Ok. Thanks for your help guys. I found the file and everything. Works fine except for the background looks ugly when in portrate, but I'm gonna fix that myself.
Atleast try to. :)

EDIT:
Okay... No idea how to change bg image from Python :D
Tried google too :)

Diablo is now supported: http://mikie.dy.fi/maemo/sliderotate-diablo.install
or https://garage.maemo.org/frs/?group_...elease_id=1957

It uses the kernel and xserver-xomap from qwerty12 as described in

http://www.internettablettalk.com/wi...tion_in_Diablo

Backup before installing. I have made several successful installs, but as always YMMV.

New version 0.0.21.diablo now has a configurable portrait orientation for those who want it to rotate right (hardware buttons down) instead of left.
