How to set the screen rotation manualy?

English Install/Boot/Login
1

Hi everyone, I’m new to linux and openSUSE.

I have installed openSUSE 13.2 on my computer. Everything function normal at the beginning. Then I was curious to trying to use a portrait screen and set the desktop to roate 90 clockwise from the KDE configuration GUI panel. Then tragedy occured, the screen went black. Restart won’t help. It goes black every time after login to the system.

But I can login in the openSUSE rescue mode. So I’m trying to rotate the sceen back in normal mode manually hopefully back to normal again.

I use an Intel integratd graphics controller.

It’s an emergency! Many many thanks in advance!:slight_smile:

Hi
Wrong forum, will close and move to Install/Boot/Login.

Hi
Moved and reopened.

Perhaps some details of hardware and graphics card…

Delete the unwanted kscreen configuration with

rm -f ~/.local/share/kscreen/*

then restart.

The default orientation should be back again.

Thank you for reply, but there is no kscreen in ~/.local/share/ …:frowning:

lfree@LFREE:~/.local/share> ls
akonadi desktop-directories systemd
akonadi_maildir_resource_0 gvfs-metadata Trash
applications icons user-places.xbel
baloo keyrings user-places.xbel.bak
bower local-mail user-places.xbel.tbca
contacts recently-used.xbel xorg

For earlier versions of KDE, navigate to ~/.kde4/share/apps/kscreen/ directory instead.
