Here's a script to xmodmap the dpad and rotate the screen. Also included is the xrandr binary, which is a CLI for the RandR extension, and is used by the script. Install them both to executable places (I put xrandr in /usr/bin, and rotate.sh in /home/user/apps) and invoke as:EDIT: Use the script below, if you want to be able to rotate one notch clockwise or counterclockwise from current position.Code:rotate.sh [ cw | ccw | normal | left | inverted | right ]
EDIT: Script rezipped; now this zip contains the most recent version of the script, able to rotate one notch clockwise or counterclockwise from current position.

2timer, pretty sure you have to set permissions for those files. see this post: http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...2&postcount=41
If you don't know how to set permissions like me, just search wikipedia for chmod, it will tell you the usage.

I prefer to use chmod +x 
Saves me from remembering odd numbers.

Hey when i type into x terminal:
tar zxvf kernel-2.2007.50-2-rotation.tar.gz
it says "tar: can't open 'kernel-2.2007.50-rotation.tar.gz' : No such file in directory"
What do i do to fix this problem?

it says "tar: can't open 'kernel-2.2007.50-rotation.tar.gz' : No such file in directory"

I do not believe -2- escapes anything anywhere, so it appears you are not typing the correct path into the terminal. Are you in the right directory?
The default terminal does do tab autocompletion in a reasonable fashion, so you can just type "kernel" and press tab; should avoid spelling mistakes.

You need to install the xomap with xrandr off jott's site (www.sse2.net/rotate)

I am nervous to brick my n810 trying to make the screen rotation happen! Will there ever be a 'click here to install' application for the screen rotation?
