I have a possible simple question.
What is the trick to rotate the display of a asus t101ha.
when I boot easys os dunfell then it starts in tablet mode, functions without a problem.
The asus has a keyboard attachted, so it is possible to use it also in a laptop mode.
But I can not find the solution to rotate the screen.
Anybody here with a suggestion.
Kind regards.
Try with Zarfy (maybe).
You could also use mY script 'mounter-rotator', which controls rotation also of touchscreen, display, and touchpad independently.
