[Bug 239479] Re: Support for console rotation with fbcon in linux-image
Current status for precise: Bug still in default and quantal-backport kernel. From the fbcon documentation: . fbcon=rotate:n This option changes the orientation angle of the console display. The value 'n' accepts the following: 0 - normal orientation (0 degree) 1 - clockwise orientation (90 degrees) 2 - upside down orientation (180 degrees) 3 - counterclockwise orientation (270 degrees) The angle can be changed anytime afterwards by 'echoing' the same numbers to any one of the 2 attributes found in /sys/class/graphics/fbcon rotate - rotate the display of the active console rotate_all - rotate the display of all consoles Console rotation will only become available if Console Rotation Support is compiled in your kernel. NOTE: This is purely console rotation. Any other applications that use the framebuffer will remain at their 'normal'orientation.

One reason we use Ubuntu is because it works on almost any hardware out- of-the-box, as well as it's excellent package and updates management facilities.

But according to the SRU policy of Jaunty kernel, we are not going to enable this option in Jaunty, probably for Karmic kernel.
