Bash Script: Rotate Toughbook CF-C1 Screen in Lighthouse 64 Puppy Linux 6.02 Beta 2

Happily, I stumbled across a way to rotate my Toughbook CF-C1's screen while using Lighthouse 64 Puppy Linux 6.02 Beta 2.

The solution was the rotate-desktop.sh script by mildmojo. I just had to slightly modify it to make the touchscreen work properly with both the stylus and my fingers.

Thank you so much to mildmojo! Being able to convert my Toughbook CF-C1 to tablet mode in GNU/Linux makes it far more pleasant to use!


Here's my slightly modified version on GitHub:

Rotate-Toughbook-CF-C1-Screen-in-Lighthouse-64-Puppy-Linux-6.02-Beta-2


And here's a zip file hosted here on Astroblahhh.Com, containing scripts with executable permissions, so you can simply double-click on them to run them.

Rotate-Toughbook-CF-C1-Screen-in-Lighthouse-64-Puppy-Linux-6.02-Beta-2.zip (4.3 KB)


I haven't tested these scripts in any other form of GNU/Linux, but hopefully they would work.
