Does anyone know how to make the screen rotate?
<drachensun>
I've managed to get the frame buffer to rotate on the terminal login
<drachensun>
but I'm been looking at X guides and can't seem to get it to rotate

<ccssnet>
hmm
<ccssnet>
good question
<ccssnet>
i was thinking of doing that recently
<ejstacey>
does it use xrandr?
<drachensun>
thats what I tried
<ejstacey>
should be able to use the xrandr command to rotate things using it
<ejstacey>
ah
<drachensun>
xrandr --output LCD --rotate left

<ejstacey>
assuming LCD is the proper output
<drachensun>
"output LCD cannot use rotation "left" relflection "none"
<ejstacey>
ah
<ejstacey>
not sure then, sorry
<drachensun>
I've got a tablet
<drachensun>
and xrandr --verbose -q only list the LCD
<drachensun>
it only shows the mode 1024x600, so I am trying to figure out how to add more, or if the driver just doesn't support it
<ccssnet>
maybe a module missing in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf
<drachensun>
well on my desktop xrandr works to rotate the screen of course and I noticed in the -q I see a lot of modes listed
<drachensun>
but only the one mode on the A10, so that seems like the most likely thing to change
<drachensun>
weird thing, on my mint pc here I can't find the xorg.conf file
<drachensun>
I was hoping to look at it for an example
<ccssnet>
drachensun: look for a xorg folder in its plac
<ccssnet>
e
<ccssnet>
also, newer xorg is supposed to auto detect so the file is still usable for backwards reasons
<drachensun>
I found a page about it, I guess mint doesn't have it by default but you can generate one
<drachensun>
I'm trying it now
<ccssnet>
nice

ok, I found you response in the chat log
<drachensun>
I tried adding those modes and I'm rebooting now
<drachensun>
hmmm the new modes still dont show when I run the xrandr query

oh well, thats all the time I have for now. Its a real shame too, the gsensor fires right up and I found a x script to autorotate the screen

<steev>
sup
<WarheadsSE>
trying to figure out the configuration for xorg
<WarheadsSE>
hdmi hates me :p
<steev>
hdmi hates everyone
<WarheadsSE>
andhaving problems finding decent docs on the deriver/xorg
<steev>
she's a spiteful mistress
<WarheadsSE>
lol ..
<WarheadsSE>
this HDMI works perfect on the A10 SoC so, go figure.
<steev>
firstly, what chip, secondly, what kernel/driver(s)
<steev>
thirdly, does it work with fbdev
<WarheadsSE>
imx6q, on a nitrogen6x
<WarheadsSE>
3.0.35 from git w/ freescale & boundary patches
<WarheadsSE>
I'm not getting decent configuration with fbdev.
<WarheadsSE>
decent meaning, im fucking it up
<steev>
you shouldn't need to "configure" anything
<steev>
however I bet the bootloader has (unless you modified it) specified to use 1920x1080
<WarheadsSE>
which would be nice .. let me get the cmdline
<steev>
WarheadsSE: interesting, and if you use the bsp... oh wait, you probably don't have access to it
<steev>
or is it realeased
<steev>
i just got back from a week's vacation
<WarheadsSE>
steev: I have access to a lot ;) I am not on bsp though.
<steev>
okay - so have you tried the fsl xorg driver instead of fbdev
<WarheadsSE>
Nope.
<steev>
i don't have a nit6
<steev>
i have sabresd, and sabrelite, and our own board
<WarheadsSE>
Eric sent this one over for me to get Arch up on. Have most of it sorted, except wierd sata behavior & testing video
<steev>
heh
<steev>
yeah, they have some minor issues
<steev>
my lite likes to lock up when using sata
<WarheadsSE>
Like, it doesnt see the attached drive :p
<steev>
the SD has been pretty solid
<WarheadsSE>
yeah, I get the occasional hiccup on sd, but just the write delay
<steev>
but you gotta be all lovey dovey with fsl to get it - should be available soon since it's now october
<WarheadsSE>
anyways..
<steev>
but yeah - if you have access to their driver, give it a shot, i'm not sure why it would bust out a virtual. alternatively, remove the mxcfb0 portion from the bootargs in uboot
<steev>
see if that helps, i normally don't put stuff in that could remotely cause an issue
* WarheadsSE
re-reads bootscript
<WarheadsSE>
remme reboot with the hdmi in.
<WarheadsSE>
appears its got an hdmidetect in uboot w/ a switch on teh args.
<WarheadsSE>
oh look, fbconsole..
* WarheadsSE
claps
<steev>
oh wait, you were plugging in hdmi after?
<WarheadsSE>
yeah
<WarheadsSE>
:p
<WarheadsSE>
hence it was thinking LCD came up 0
<steev>
in that case it was likely using 800x600 or whatever as a placeholder, and doesn't do hotplug support
<WarheadsSE>
not very well, no
<steev>
hotplug is notoriously difficult
<WarheadsSE>
should work with the edid/dcc but, meh
<WarheadsSE>
I know the troublesome that it is.
<steev>
it's not about edid/dcc
<steev>
it's about every monitor manufacturer doing different shit with their monitors, so you get weird stuff like the monitor turning off, going into standby, sending the edid twice, not re-sending it at all, so on and so forth
