Is there any work on supporting portrait mode?
I'm trying to get X to drive a display in portrait mode. But the only driver that seems to work is the nVidia code and the performance is terrible. Is there any work to make a fast portrait mode work? I'm especially interested in support on VIA's CLE266 and the Intel i810. And to make life more fun I need to play movies, I'm using xine at the moment. Barry ___ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel

xrandr has no support for rotate in 4.4.0.

Are you talking about a monitor that is able to change its beam scanning, or are you talking about rotating a normal monitor, so that the beam scans from top-to-bottom? In the first case, almost any graphics card should be able to set up a 768x1024 mode for a standard monitor. However, the second case requires a graphics chip that knows how to scan its frame buffer differently. I know of very few chips with that ability, and a software simulation will always be unsatisfactory. I'm especially interested in support on VIA's CLE266 and the Intel i810. And to make life more fun I need to play movies, I'm using xine at the moment. Neither chip supports hardware rotation. -- - Tim Roberts, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. ___ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel
