[SOLVED] Display rotation

[satimis]

Hi folks,

Fedora 12 64-bit
Asus mobo M4A78-E
Samsung 2494HM display

The captioned display support 90 deg rotation. Which software do I need to install? TIA

Tried editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf as;

Section "Device"
        Identifier  "Videocard0"
        Driver      "radeon"
        Option      "Rotate"    "90"

Restart X and rotate the display 90 deg. It doesn't work.

It depends upon the version of your X server as to whether or not rotation of the display is supported. When I go to the display manager gui on my CentOS 5 (RHEL 5) workstation, it prominently displays this message:

Your X server does not support resizing and rotating the display. Please update to version 4.3 or greater. You need the X Resize And Rotate extension (RANDR) version 1.1 or greater to use this feature.
