you need to to use Fenix to build a new modded image, If @Frank can assist me in doing so, I could help build a new image for you
OMG! that would be really great. Thanks. Also, https://docs.khadas.com/edge/ConnectLcd.html#4-1-6-Configure-Timing these are for Edge but Iām using VIM3. Will it differ so much?
no, donāt use that, maybe use it for reference but I wouldnāt suggest that as a replacement
Okay, so lets just wait for @Frank to help.
if the timings were wrong other users would also have complained, Plus there are demos by khadas team showing it working in landscape modeā¦ Could you try with android and see if landscape mode is workingā¦?
There is no doubt that landscape mode is possible, the question is how do we get it working in Linux ?
Hi @Archangel1235 , I havenāt tried it for android but I couldnāt find any demos showing the touchscreen working in Landscape mode with āLinuxā in VIM3. Can you please share the link of the demo? Anyways, if its possible please tell me how to do it as i have selected the landscape mode only in the image shown above in the post but it didnāt trigger the rotation, neither any other option triggers any kind of rotation.
they have shown landscape demo in android onlyā¦
changing the timings might not helpā¦
@Archangel1235 Yes, they have shown for Android only. Can you please help me do to exactly the same for Linux too.
Thanks.
can you test with android onceā¦?
turns out screen rotation does not work with normal HDMI monitor too
Also the post for rpi states that 90 degree and 270 degree rotation require additional gpu memoryā¦
https://elinux.org/RPiconfig#Video_mode_options
It might be that screen rotation is not possible without proper gpu drivers
@Archangel1235
Ohh, So, does VIM3 has any GPU or GPU drivers? I donāt think so. Any clue how to rotate it then?
I donāt think its possible without themā¦
I tried apt install arandr
It just shows other options greyed outā¦
Or it might be possible by editing env.txt in boot folderā¦ Khadas team should tell us the right command for rotation @numbqq @Frank ?
@CodeLogist Hello. Just mainline gnome images can do it . It canāt be do in kernel 4.9
@Frank so which linux OS image should I install for this feature of rotation to be active in VIM3? Is their any link available?
Is their any EMMC installation available rather than using SD card?
no ready made emmc version
only sd version
try with this if it works I will try to build you one
