The problems are three:
  1. Screen is rotated, but input areas are not. For example, if you go to the home and give this command:
    PHP Code:
    echo "1" > /sys/class/graphics/fb0/rotate 
    and touch the top-left corner of the screen, the home icon changed as it was clicked and screen is refreshed. The problem is the screen is rotated by 180°, and home icon is on the bottom-right corner.
  2. If you try the same thing with echo "0" or "2", ie portrait mode, display is completely messed up.
  3. if you do
    PHP Code:
    zcat /etc/images/kraken-on-0.raw.gz  | /usr/local/Kobo/pickel showpic 
    and touch the top-left corner, nothing happens. If you touch instead the top-right corner, screen is refreshed only for the top of the screen, the same thing that the settings menu does. So pickel rotate the screen by 90° without rotating input areas, but things are messed up much more. Image is not displayed even if you rotate the screen by any angles.
