This corresponds to what I observed, as far as I remember. Whatever the
rotation set in /etc/init.d/opie, I couldn't get the right orientation.
Something like 2 months back, didn't you say it was something that was
fixed in the code, but no available as a package yet?

If the latest Opie changes are released in the unstable feed, I can try
to upgrade the packages on my rootfs.

Of course, the best and cleanest way is to generate an "opie-image"
through OpenEmbedded.
Unfortunately, I'm not sure I will have enough bandwidth to do this
here. On Friday, I'll have DSL again.

Right... The linearization module is supposed to be loaded in the latest
rootfs (see the /linuxrc file), but it still needs testing through a
valid calibration tool. My plans are to do my first checks with GPE's
xserver (from an images generated by OpenEmbedded), which is can
directly use a calibration data file.
