Hi fellow xorg users, I'm seeking help with a migration from kdrive to xorg. Under kdrive-fbdev, I'm able to rotate the X11 output using xrandr in all four orientations: normal, left, right, inverted. However, under xf86-video-fbdev, xrandr only reports that it does not support left, right, or inverted rotations. Dynamic rotation is critical for this application, so I cannot use the "Rotate" option in xorg.conf.
The atmel_lcdfb driver that we're using in the kernel does not support hardware rotation, so I believe that a software-based Shadow Buffer is required. (Please correct me if I'm wrong on this!) I added in the "ShadowFB" option to xorg.conf for the fbdev device, but xrandr still only reports normal rotation possible. I've hit a brick wall in my own research on this, so would appreciate any help that the community can offer. Any suggestions? Thanks so much!
