Additionally few gfx drivers support such rotation. I really see no reason for such headache for us either. To make long story short rotation to arbitrary angle is a NO WAY as far as I'm concerned > > Thanks > > Michal > > > _______________________________________________ > Grub-devel mailing list > Grub-devel@gnu.org > http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel >
