Is X11 Screen Rotation Possible?

Thanks, but when I try that I just get:

Code:
X Error of failed request:   Bad Match (invalid parameter attributes)
  Major opcode of failed request:   139 (RANDR)
  Minor opcode of failed request:    2 (RRSetScreenConfig)
  Serial number of failed request:   14
  Current serial number in output stream:   14

I'm thinking for some reason my fbturbo driver isn't providing xrandr features like orientation. The fact the only output xrandr lists is "default" makes me think it's using some kind of fallback device.

My distro is a custom Slarm64 made by swapping in the kernel and modules from Manjaro. Maybe they weren't compiled with support for this. I think I'll take a look at some other distros. Maybe Maemo Leste.

Do the commands you posted work on your PinePhone? What distro are you running?
