Simple Qt screen rotation manager
Reads from accelerometer sensors, and rotate display according to the readings.
Works only in X11 for now.
Similar to the current solution implemented in Gnome, but works on all other desktop environments as well (KDE, XFCE, etc).
Compilation requirements
- cmake
- gcc
- Qt5 (with modules x11extras, sensors)
- xrandr
- XInput (Xi)
On ubuntu, run the following command to install dependencies:
