Here is the source
http://cvs.sourceforge.jp/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/xqt/xqt2/xfree86/xqt-driver/qtscreen.cc?rev=1.1view=auto 



If I remember correctly from using X/Qt with Sharp-rom (Qtopia), the 
X/Qt screen was not able to rotate once you were in the session. So I 
guess the zaurus hack is to pre-rotate the screen for different zaurus 
devices. It certainly would be nice to be able to rotate screen under 
X/Qt.


Ok, I patched the source a bit and Xqt2 it is now quite usable on my 
SIMpad :).
Here is a picture with xeyes native on the pad [1] and here [2]  one of 
a ssh forwarded X11 session with epiphany.


In Xqt2 there is already some wrapper for xrandr implemented and it 
should work with some effort on it.
I will try to fix everything for the SIMpad and then let Zaurus users 
test it.
Do you know if I can get the size of the taskbar? Xqt uses some fixed 
sizes for it which are wrong on my pad.

Looks nice. Good work.

Xqt2 is sort of an incomplete (now abandoned) work. Things could work 
much better with some effort.

Sorry to disappoint you, but I'm also learning. Ask bluelightning.

Hi,
I now read the source of X/Qt a bit to debug its behaviour on my SIMpad

I was not able to use it without QWS (the hacks for zaurus) at the
moment but I keep trying.

So I am wonder why it is needed? It rotates the screen 270° and changes
h to w and w to h. I own no Zaurus and it is not documented for which
models this hack is. It is maybe not even needed for opie?


Thinking outside the box for a moment: you could use qvfb[1] inside an 
X11 session to run opie or opie apps.

Actually that's a great idea, perhaps someone could test it?
