Hi everyone...and Hi to the creator of this thread.
I'm writing cuz i have a brand new Nokia N810 Internet Tablet, already updated and running Diablo. I read all this thing, but i'm a little confused about the steps indicated. I mean, at the beginning says to ignore your blog entries and so, and i really don't know what to do.
I'll really apreciate if the creator of the blog gives me the simplified and step by step instructions to make my tablet's screen rotate work. (I'M A NEWBIE AT THIS, BUT I CAN PERFECTLY FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS...LOL)
Thanks and i'll be eager waiting a reply.

today's system update seems to be playing havoc with sliderotate. I have tried the install from scratch and the functionality is definitely broken.

rerunning /root/install-xrandr-kernel fixes it.

Hmm after doing the SSU upgrade, removing becomeroot, and rerunning /root/install-xrandr-kernel I could install the update without any problems. Dunno why though.

You will need to install the xserver-xomap with RandR support, as well as flash the kernel with RrandR support before this package will do anything. Since the updated components can't be a dependecy, you are required to do it yourself.
This one-click-install will provide you with an updateable xserver-xomap if you are not already using it.
After the package installation is complete, update the xserver-xomap by either the application manager or apt-get.
Then flash your N810 with this kernel and reboot to complete the installation
If you do not know how to flash the kernel or update the xserver-xomap, you are advised not to install this package at all, as you may brick your device while experimenting.

Does one reflash the kernel and then have to reinstall apps?
Do we flash on the NIT alone?
thanks

Just as an idea, perhaps you could create a small a small shell script and a .desktop file for it so that the script contains the /root/install-xrandr-kernel command and you'd put that script to the sudoers file on postinst of sliderotate. That would make installing the sliderotate much easier for the normal users (no gainroot needed and such).
