Actually, I'd use orientation with keyboard open (horizontal) -- as
that's how the console will be orientated (right?) and how the linux
will be most useful...

Right, so how can we do that by default? I currently have
"fbcon=rotate:1" in cmdline.

BTW, I think with omap4 we have the tiler hardware taking care
of the rotation on omap4, well I have not verified that though.

Tony
