R52 Rotated Screen

#1 Post by skiptay » Fri Dec 26, 2008 7:47 pm

I have a friend with an R52 Thinkpad and some how the screen has been rotated 90 degrees. Are there a series of keystrokes which may fix this?

Thanks

Problem Soved:
Ctrl - Alt and one of the four arrow keys.

I haven't installed anything special. I was under the impression it comes with the nVidia drivers as I can also rotate it using the nVidia control panel.

It comes with some drivers. I've seen this functionality available through drivers from nVidia, ATi and Intel.

There is an option to install iRotate, which will enable the hotkeys even if the driver does not provide them (it still relies on the driver to enable the rotating functionality, though).
