      @sdetweil The code has seemingly changed

      That didn’t work, but

      wlr-randr --output HDMI-A-1 --transform 90
      
      

      does! Except… when I reboot, the screen goes back to the way it was

        @robertybob did you see the section on autostart? as the

          @sdetweil Ah, I couldn’t find the folder as it’s not in /.config/labwc/autostart but instead appears to be /usr/share/labwc

          I’ll give that a go! Thank you :D

            @robertybob .config is usually in the user folder (note the . in front)

              Mine looks a little different :(

              OK, that’s bad…
              (It’s a Pi5, right?).

              The complete content of my dispsetup.sh is as follows:

              #!/bin/sh
              if ! raspi-config nonint is_pi || raspi-config nonint is_kms ; then
              if xrandr --output HDMI-1 --primary --mode 2560x1440 --rate 59.951 --pos 0x0 --rotate left --dryrun>
              xrandr --output HDMI-1 --primary --mode 2560x1440 --rate 59.951 --pos 0x0 --rotate left
              fi
              fi
              if [ -e /usr/share/tssetup.sh ] ; then
              . /usr/share/tssetup.sh
              fi
              if [ -e /usr/share/ovscsetup.sh ] ; then
              . /usr/share/ovscsetup.sh
              fi
              exit 0
              

              If I interpret your line correctly, you are using the Wayland-Window-Manager?
              (wlandr => wayland … ???).
              My box is a Pi4B, no wayland.
              I’ve seen elsewhere that the Pi5 can be forced to use X11 again - than the above should work directly.
              Otherwise you may give it a try to put your code into the dispsetup.sh?

              Here I found the description of your commandlines above. Unfortunately there is no description how to get this pesistent…

              In Addition I just found a hint in Raspberry-Forum
              There a guy stated:

              sudo nano .config/wayfire.ini
              
              -> scrolled down and changed the output section as below:
              
              [output:HDMI-A-1]
              mode = 1920X1080@60000
              position = 0,0
              transform = 90
              

              May this is the right way with wayland…

              Ralf

                @rkorell Ah, sorry, I’m using a Raspberry Pi 3 :)
                Nothing I’ve tried has worked so far, even ChatGPT is failing me :(
