More details I am running FullPageOS on a Raspberry Pi 3B to display the dashboard for my Home Assistant. I'm using the official 7 inch display. I have seen multiple threads online about adding lcd_rotate=2 and other similar things to config.txt. But this does not seem to be working for me. I have tried to add it to the config in /boot and the config in /boot/firmware where the config in /boot tells me it is now. Makes no difference for me. With there being so many different threads on the issue and none that seem to kind of collate it all, i was getting very confused on how i can solve this issue. So any help that can be provided for this would be greatly appreciated

So i have noticed now that when i do lcd_rotate=2. During the reboot process, it starts off in the orientation i want, but then flips back again a few seconds after when it's loading everything through
