Why? Because all these packages are from diablo, not from chinook. I recompiled all of these using diablo sources, libs & SDK.

And also, you are using a chinook kernel in diablo. Works but if you can have the diablo one (which is better, why not)

1. Unzip this to your memory card: http://rapidshare.com/files/125096576/Rotate.zip.html
2. Set the tablet into red pill mode: http://maemo.org/community/wiki/appl...erredpillmode/
3. Install the packages in this order:
  • libxrandr2_1.2.1-1_armel.deb
  • xserver-xomap_1.3.99.0~git20070321-0osso20074202_armel.modfied.deb
  • rotate-sb-plugin_0.1-1_armel.deb
  • kernel-diablo-flasher_2.6.21-200823maemo3_all.modfied.deb
4. Open up "X-Terminal" and run flash-and-reboot.
5. Enjoy.

Here is emjayes sliderotate (rotate with home, power key etc) with a quick modification not to offer to flash kernel:

Here is my rotate-sb-plugin mod (original by jott) to rotate the d-pad too.(Well, I say mine but the original idea is Benson's and pH5 helped me with execing a program in a .c and I just did the rest and packaged it up ):

If packages are missing or/and you get something like:

Then try first:
