I wish to use a vertical HDMI monitor with a qemu guest running NetBSD. I tried to set the resolution in 2 ways: 1. On Linux host's X11 the screen is already rotated. Now use xrandr newmode, addmode to add a vertical mode with X and Y values of available modes just swapped. So far ok. But xrandr refuses to switch to this mode. 2. Keep X11 in normal (horizontal) mode on Linux host. Do --rotate using xrandr on guest (NetBSD) X11. Here the error is that the rotate operation is not supported. I tried nearly all -vga options to see what modes become available. The vmware option enables several more modes. But still no way to rotate by either of the above methods. Any other tricks to support a vertical screen on NetBSD running as qemu guest? -- Mayuresh
