Calibration for Asus T500LAB #258

Closed Phulkrum closed 5 years ago

Phulkrum commented 5 years ago

Finished building from source on Ubuntu 18.4 after removing version 2.4-2 which is supplied by Ubuntu repo. both versions (2.4-2 and 2.5 built from source) exhibit the same result, system boots and once logged in screen defaults to right-up rotation. leaving me to have to physically turn the laptop to that position then lock the rotation to be able to use it in laptop mode. is there a way to modify the service on my side to default to "normal"? (calibrate for my system's accelerometer? )

Yes, and it's even explained in the README: https://github.com/hadess/iio-sensor-proxy#accelerometer-orientation

The quirks live in systemd, and this is probably the quirk for the device that's closest to yours: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/master/hwdb/60-sensor.hwdb#L119
