Greetings-
Setting up my new laptop, a Lenovo Thinkpad X61 Tablet PC, and I am trying
to make the screen rotate 90 degrees right for tablet use. This crashes
the display, as is documented many other places, but none of the
suggestions found via google have fixed the problem.
Kernel is 2.6.24.2; video is intel, x.org from debian testing. The problem
happens whehter I use the intel or the i810 driver. Using xrandr or the
Gnome screen rotation applet, the X server simply dies leaving a black
screen. ctrl-alt-backspace returns me to gdm and I can re-login, but the
screen does not rotate.
Any advice?
Thanks.
