X screen orientation...can't change it?

Hi folks,

I recently installed intimate and it seemed that X was configured to run in
landscape mode by default. I wanted to try running X in portrait mode, so I
edited /etc/init.d/x and restarted X, but it still comes up in landscape mode.

In other words, X runs in landscape mode whether I use:

./Xfbdev -screen 240x320 -dpi 100 &

or

./Xfbdev -screen 320x240 -dpi 100 &

What could be wrong here??
