Ah, ok.  The driver seems to handle portrait and swap x+y when creating
a displaysurface.  At least I get a 600x800 display upright.

I can't see a difference between Landscape + Landscape (flipped).
Likewise Portrait + Portrait (flipped).  Is there any?

Ok, so we loose the Portrait mode.

Keeping orientation 0+1 (and dropping the flipped 2+3 versions) should
make the mode list small enougth that it fits while maintaining support
for the portrait mode.

I think it would also be good to fix the driver to ignore everything with or

How about that?
