For example, if you have an NV driver, you can run "man nv" and search for "rotate" for further info.OK, the card in teh machine in question is a Radeon.
I see there's no man page for radeon. I did a quick google for "option rotate radeon" and got several returns that look fairly promising, but not having a radeon I didn't bother to do any further research. I'd suggest just trying the option, something like:
Section "Device" ### Available Driver options are:- # sw_cursor is needed for some ati and radeon cards #Option "sw_cursor" #Option "hw_cursor" #Option "NoAccel" #Option "ShowCache" #Option "ShadowFB" #Option "UseFBDev" #Option "Rotate" Identifier "Card0" # The following line is auto-generated by KNOPPIX mkxf86config Driver "ati" VendorName "ati" BoardName "radeon" # BusID "PCI:1:0:0" EndSection -- Kent
