@lm2:

Thanks, I'll play around with it a bit later and see if I can figure out what's going on.

In the meantime, anyone else that has already installed Diablo and is installing the rotate plugin...any problems?

For those who implement rotation with method described in this thread and then wish to clone their diablo OS to sd using penguinbait's install-tools deb: after using PB's clone tools, you will mostly likely need reinstall (in Red Pill mode) this, this, and this. (These are xomap, xrandr, and auto install debs from here.) Then reboot. Rotation should be restored.

Ok, here is prefered way of installing rotation into diablo.

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://qwerty12.maemobox.org/Rotate.zip

(thanks andrewfblack again)

Edit, mirrored, thanks rm_you!
http://www.ageofikon.info/Rotate.zip or http://cs.trinity.edu/~acm/debs/Rotate.zip
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.

NOTE: Emjayes's sliderotate was updated for Diablo and provides an automatic way to do this:

Highly recommended.

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 ):

The rotate-sb-plugin in Rotate.zip is the original.

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

Then try first:

Thanks qwerty!

I'm loving diablo - that is such an easy way to do the rotation flash!

Quick question does that command need to be run as "root" or not

Since you're in red pill mode, probably no need to become root.

Actually, I found I could run flash-and-reboot as the normal user :/

Also, red pill mode does not imply root access
