Display Rotation

#1 Post by mr_mbuna » Mon Sep 04, 2006 12:37 pm

I have a 2373-3VU T42. I run a dual-head display on a Dell 1901FP 19" LCD. I've discovered that the display will swivel into portrait mode. Does the ThinkPad support display rotation on the external screen?

Thanks -Ben

It sure does. I'm using the Omega drivers, so this may be a little different. For me, it's Display Properties -> Settings tab -> Advanced -> Rotation tab.

I've used rotation with my 2001FP and it works fine.

I don't know what the Omega drivers are. I don't have the Rotation option in my advanced screen. My T42 is equipped with an ATI Mobility Radeon 7500, with driver version 6.14.10.6546. All IBM drivers have been updated as of today using the ThinkVantage Software Installer tool.
