@johnnyboy ok, I can’t help with that. I searched for instructions and passed them along… I don’t have any portrait on pi… I do on ubuntu, but they have a UI that does it live… click, push a button

display_rotate=1

Isn’t display_rotate=1 landscape? Wouldn’t portrait be display_rotate=0?

scratching my head

My bad. Senior moment. :-)

@Mykle1

😔… oh well… my new lease of life with my MM was very short lived.

My mirror is fixed in portrait… so having the system in Lanscape is of no use to me at all.

Surely not every user here is using MM in Landscape?

[sdetweil]

@johnnyboy no… just that we TWO don’t know how to fix it…

[johnnyboy]

@sdetweil

Ok… well can only thank you for your great help on this… at least I have an updated Pi.

Should I start a new thread asking about portrait mode? Doubt everyone is reading this thread and would comment on how to achieve that?

@johnnyboy updated pi? did u use my upgrade script?

Ahhhhhhh… no, only the install… i shall go and see the upgrade script now.

@johnnyboy install is for new, upgrade is for previous installed, get to latest
so you would have to rename the folders back before trying

we have a version update every 3 months… you can imagine the trouble folks run into
