Re: [Trisquel-users] Re : Having trouble rotating console screen
Thanks again for responding to my post. I don't know why I did not look at this file before posting, duh ! I know what is going wrong now. I posted awhile ago about how I was trying out Salix because I did not want systemd and that I was sad to go. I haven't gone. I am tri-booting at the moment but in reality only using Trisquel. Something is going wrong during the file generation. The "fbcon=rotate:1" is ending up without a closing double quote. This is a bug if it's worth looking into. For me, the problem is solved. I am going to re-install with just Trisquel. I have all of my data on another drive so it's easy to do. Please see line 203 and the lines that came before it.

It must be line 203 of /boot/grub/grub.cfg.new which is generated from /etc/default/grub and /etc/grub.d/* and would have become /boot/grub/grub.cfg if 'update-grub' had succeeded. Could you attach /boot/grub/grub.cfg.new ?
