There is a rotate option for the device section in xorg (maybe for all
cards, not quite sure...). It is unaccelerated, but indeed rotated.
I'm going to have to apologize for my newness. I looked in the man files
for xorg.conf and tfdx and I didn't find a rotation option. I suspect that
my card will not support it. Is rotation video card dependent?
Sorry, forgot to mention one more thing. xrandr extension allows for
rotation (I think that's the second r). In kde there is krandrtray
which allows the dynamic rotation of the screen.

I also ran the command 'xrandr -q' which was recomended in the xrandr man
file and it's output was:
Current rotation - normal
Current reflection - none
Rotations possible - normal
Reflections possible - none
This again makes me think that rotation is not possible, but perhaps that
is because the rotation option is not enabled.
Thanks for your quick advice
