Hiya - I'm trying to rotate my display & am halfway there - the screen *is* rotated 90 degrees clockwise, but the resolution remains @ 1280x1024, as opposed to 1024x1280 :-(

Here's what I have for hardware:

(--) PCI:*(0 at 1:0:0) VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8623 [Apollo CLE266] integrated CastleRock graphics rev 3, Mem @ 0xd8000000/67108864, 0xdc000000/16777216, BIOS @ 0x????????/65536

... and the rotate directive is being picked up:

(II) CHROME(0): Reading config file...
...
(**) CHROME(0): Rotating screen clockwise -- acceleration is disabled.

... however the line I put in for 1024x1280 is getting ignored:

(II) CHROME(0): Supported Future Video Modes:
(II) CHROME(0): #0: hsize: 1280  vsize 1024  refresh: 60  vid: 32897
(II) CHROME(0): #1: hsize: 1024  vsize 768  refresh: 60  vid: 16481
(II) CHROME(0): #2: hsize: 800  vsize 600  refresh: 60  vid: 16453
(II) CHROME(0): #3: hsize: 640  vsize 480  refresh: 60  vid: 16433
(II) CHROME(0): Supported additional Video Mode:
(II) CHROME(0): clock: 108.0 MHz   Image Size:  338 x 270 mm
(II) CHROME(0): h_active: 1280  h_sync: 1328  h_sync_end 1440 h_blank_end 1688 h_border: 0
(II) CHROME(0): v_active: 1024  v_sync: 1025  v_sync_end 1028 v_blanking: 1066 v_border: 0
(II) CHROME(0): Ranges: V min: 56 V max: 76 Hz, H min: 30 H max: 81 kHz, PixClock max 140 MHz
(II) CHROME(0): Monitor name: SyncMaster
...
(II) CHROME(0): Not using mode "1024x1280" (height too large for virtual size)

... here's my conf - any ideas how I get out this mess ?:

Section "Device"
    Identifier    "Configured Video Device"
    Option "Rotate" "CW"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
    Identifier    "Configured Monitor"
    Modeline "1024x1280"  110.66  1024 1096 1208 1392  1280 1281 1284 1325  -HSync +Vsync
EndSection

Section "Screen"
    Identifier    "Default Screen"
    Monitor        "Configured Monitor"
    Device        "Configured Video Device"
EndSection

... the Modeline entry is the output of "gtf 1024 1280 60.0" 

Ideas ?  - Dave
