You took the words right out of my mouth. (Well, figuratively.) Do the xrandr rotation first, to make sure that it succeeds. Then, if it does, the compositor could do its funky effects. With proper driver support for flicker-free rotate, that should work. ~ C. _______________________________________________ xorg mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg
