Would somebody mind packaging an updated Xserver Xomap?
xserver-xomap_1.3.99.0~git20070321-0osso20074202_armel.modfied.deb is old and it continually asks me to update it in Application Manager/Apt-get.

Combatdoc: THANK YOU! I thought I was going insane....Ok maybe not because of this...

I posted earlier that after reboot I was unable to rotate my screen, where I had been able to earlier. Since I have been "just updating" everything, I'm betting that I keep replacing the Xserver xomap...

I followed the install procedure and double checked that the rotation worked...YES...

Now after today's round of updates...No rotation...

I second the plea for an updated file. PLEASE


Thanks in advance...

I got an answer to this that might help you too.

Don't leave the tablet in red pill mode unless you need it for something. The Xserver file is only picked up in red pill, so it won't get updated in blue pill mode.

Oh, and updating the xserver version is on the blocks as well.

DOH!

I completely forgot about it being in "red pill mode"

Anyone know how to tell which mode it is in without going through the app manager?

Maybe a status bar plugin?

It will always ask you to update a package if it was installed locally and can be found in a repository. Look into apt-get pinning.

True, but the issue is that the one installed is a different version than the one in repository.

As a note, you can also now use Advanced Backlight instead of the rotate-sb-plugin to handle rotation, which is yet another less statusbar icon.

See here:
http://maemo.org/downloads/product/O...ced-backlight/
or here:
http://adv-backlight.garage.maemo.org
or just do:
apt-get install advanced-backlight

I hope you guys find it useful!

No, as the version strings is same. I can't do anything about the way packages are handled in maemo . If someone thinks they can do better, then by all means, grab the xrandr patch and post your package. And then we will see if application manager wants to update the package. (using higher version number doesn't count as you will mess up osso-software-version UNLESS you get the user to install -unlocked.)

Yeah, I would say that anyone who is willing to install something like rotation support and do a kernel flash may as well be forced into using -unlocked software-version package...
