Is iio-sensor-proxy installed, if so what does monitor-sensor command show while rotating the device?

TraceyC77 commented 9 months ago

iio-sensor-proxy is installed by default (and is on the system), I'll get that output from monitor-sensor `tomorrow

TraceyC77 commented 9 months ago

According to the output, the sensor is detected and screen orientation changes are properly detected. The screen does not change orientation.

 live@solus ~ $ monitor-sensor
    Waiting for iio-sensor-proxy to appear
+++ iio-sensor-proxy appeared
=== Has accelerometer (orientation: normal)
=== No ambient light sensor
=== No proximity sensor

    Accelerometer orientation changed: bottom-up
    Accelerometer orientation changed: right-up
    Accelerometer orientation changed: normal

Tested this on Plasma 6, also no auto-rotation happening iio-sensor-proxy is installed.

monitor-sensor output is the same as previously

@ReillyBrogan Any chance you could look into this on your surface thing?

TraceyC77 commented 3 months ago

I found that auto rotation works if I disable the setting Settings - Display Configuration - Automatic - Only when in tablet mode

So apparently Plasma isn't detecting tablet mode. I'm not sure if the mode isn't being reported to Plasma properly or Plasma is not treating that signal properly? I looked but didn't find a related bug on bugs.kde.org

Is this still occurring?

If this was fixed in 4.6, move it back there and close it.

If not, leave it in 4.7 for now.
