    In config.txt file in /boot, add

    display_hdmi_rotate=1

    (well…I think it’s either that, or the number 3, I don’t remember which way it rotates.)

    I think that’ll fix you.

      @gnurph69

      1 = 90, 2 = 180, 3 = 270.

      If it’s a pi 4, you’ll need to set it via GUI.

      The "E" in "Javascript" stands for "Easy"

        @bkeyport Yes, using a pi 4. I was able to set it using the GUI after booting, but it still initially starts rotated 180 degrees.

          @kevinmm There’s really nothing you can do about that if you’re using the GL driver that’s involved with the Pi 4… If you switch to the other driver (Legacy I believe) it’ll take the config.txt param.

            @bkeyport I enabled the Open GL driver and was able to get everything working as intended!
