portrait mode displays
hiro:
xrandr --output LVDS1 --rotate left works here (see xrandr --help)
Tuftec:
I have tried the various suggestions.
I think the problem I have is that the display hardware is very simple.
Can the display be rotated when using the basic built in???? video drivers?

I use arandr http://christian.amsuess.com/tools/arandr/ , dependencies are Xorg-7.x-bin.tcz and pygtk-2.7.tcz, but they serve only temporarily.
Start ./arandr, setup your screen (output-->your_monitor->orientation->left), test with apply, and if all goes well save setting (layout-->Save as), this creates a script that started returns monitor as you set (with xrandr command).
hiro:
If xrandr doesn't work arandr won't either.
Someone already said you should look into Xorg.log and at least post the error you get when running xrandr.
Tuftec:
Where do I find the Xorg.log???
