Return to landscape mode when slide is opened / stay in portrait mode

Do we need to re-run the install-xandr-kernel executable/script again if we just update from a previous version ?

No, only first timers will have to to that.
Must edit the postinst script to reflect that someday

The Application Manager calls different script whether the user is upgrading, fist time installing or removing a script.
You may want to check out how the tutorials.

I do have to follow them as well

I've been waiting to install this for a long time! Working now with a fresh Diablo flash. I have python installed, but when I click on your initial install link, app manager says that the following Application packages are missing: xrandr, flash-and-reboot, initfs-flasher, kernel-diablo-flasher.

Is this because I have to add "chinook" as the distribution in certain repositories? If so, which ones? Thanks!

UPDATE: Added your repo and did apt-get update and apt-get -f install, and all seems well, except I still can't seem to snag xrandr....

Adding 'diablo chinook' to the rotate repo should do it. The only problem I have had thus far is that flashing the kernel results in the boot sequence not getting past the nokia splash screen. I've tried it twice so I don't think it was my install and it worked fine pre-diablo. Any ideas?

the kernel is way too different in diablo as is the xserver-xomap too.
using chinook kernel will not help, you will not get past the flash screen.

I am currently in summer vacation, so development is pretty much in halt.

If you want rotation now, use chinook, if you want diablo, be patient. All good things etc.

I have asked an iNDT manager, that I know in person , to bundle the kernel and server as installable package. Let's see if they want to do it now that diablo is out.

Or you could install without slide-rotation until this is made functional for diablo. Instructions here.

Here, I've rebuilt the xserver and kernel for diablo (this is the diablo kernel and the xserver from diablo, no chinook stuff present):

If you want to have a go at installing this in diablo, make sure you don't flash the xserver and kernel (both chinook components) that come with sliderotate.

I'm newbie for tablets. Got my N810 today

I installed the sliderotate, and it installed perfectly.
But then I try to run "./install-xrandr-kernel" and it says "/bin/sh: ./install-xrandr-kernell: not found"

Do I need to download the package somewhere?

EDIT:

Ok. I found the problem. I haven't flashed the kernel

Is there a way to flash it with Windows. I don't have a Linux computer
