Rotating Kippah 90 degrees?

Post by k6rtm »

Title says it -- how do I rotate the image on my 800x480 Kippah display 90 degrees (or 270 degrees, to portrait mode)?

For the PiTFT displays, it was an option in the dtoverlay line in /boot/config.txt

Hoping there's something similar for the Kippah!

Looks great, much less room required than using an HDMI display and chopping up cables!

for the Kippah it's about the same, one of these should do it for you

display_rotate rotates the display clockwise on the screen (default=0) or flips the display.

display_rotate=0 Normal
display_rotate=1 90 degrees
display_rotate=2 180 degrees
display_rotate=3 270 degrees
display_rotate=0x10000 horizontal flip
display_rotate=0x20000 vertical flip

Many thanks -- worked a treat.

Moving my Kippo Honeypot from an older Pi B to a Pi 2 with 800x480 display

no problem, you are running Kali by chance are you? I just did a pi 2 running Kali and a kippah with a 7in tft and am getting a blue shade over my screen, no idea what's doing it

Nope, running a Kippo variant under standard Raspbian on a Pi 2. So far so good, other than not having I2C for my other goodies, but not having to worry about HDMI board and cables makes up for it.
