You can run:
cat /mnt/initfs/etc/initfs_version and the version will be shown, you can then see the version displayed on the initfs file.

Don't think so :/. All this was around at chinook time and nokia never added it into diablo.

Thanks
The xserver or kernel wasn't installed. The applet is programmed not to display if the xserver or kernel doesn't support xrandr.

That's part of sliderotate. You could try installing that but not installing the xserver and kernel.

I'd make a modified package for diablo of sliderotate that wouldn't install the xserver and kernel but I don't want to be stepping on toes.
