Teemu,
> We have HW iMX6SoloX based HW running Yocto 2.2 and Wayland/Weston 1.11. There is need to rotate the display 90 degrees. In X11 this wouldn’t be a problem since you could use xrandr. What I understood Wayland does not support this method.
You are right, xrandr is the configuration utility for X
> There is rotate config(transform) option in Weston, but it did nothing when tested. Is there a way to rotate the display in Wayland that would work with iMX6 or is that something that is not currently supported in that combo? (Wayland + imx6).
Transform will work, i tried the same on i.mx6 (with DRM backend) and it was working, but you will need mainline kernel. Not sure whether you can do the same fbdev backend.
