Hi Everyone
I used to be able to rotate my Linux console so that if I typed ctrl-alt
F1 thru F6, I could access virtual terminals that were also rotated
vertically with my monitor.
I tried to run this:
sudo update-grub
And I am getting errors.
I altered my /etc/defalt/grub file before running update. Now I am not
sure if this is my error or something that is wrong otherwise.
If you have time, could you run sudo update-grub and let me know if you
have errors?
Here is my file, perhaps you can spot the error? I added the
"fbcon=rotate:1" part
Thanks for reading-Patrick
