sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get full-upgrade
Raspberry Pi OS and Kali display rotation
First check whether the KMS or FKMS driver is loaded on the system you are using.
Check method: In /boot/config.txt, check whether the line dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d or dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d is turned on.
With KMS or FKMS driver loaded
Use the following command for display rotation:
sudo nano /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart #Enter the command corresponding to the display rotation angle at the end of the autostart file, and it will take effect after rebooting the system. #0: rotate 0 degrees; 1: rotate 270 degrees; 2: rotate 180 degrees; 3: rotate 90 degrees xrandr -o 1
No KMS or FKMS driver loaded
Use the following command for display rotation:
sudo nano /boot/config.txt #Enter the command corresponding to the display rotation angle at the end of the config.txt file, and it will take effect after rebooting the system. #0: rotate 0 degrees; 1: rotate 90 degrees; 2: rotate 180 degrees; 3: rotate 270 degrees display_rotate=3
Ubuntu display rotation
First check whether the KMS or FKMS driver is loaded on the system you are using.
Check method: In /boot/firmware/config.txt, check whether the line dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d or dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d is turned on.
With KMS or FKMS driver loaded
Use the following methods for display rotation.
Note: For different versions of Ubuntu systems, the interface may be different. Generally, you can find the Displays application and rotate it.
Execute the command to rotate the Ubuntu login interface. If the Ubuntu login interface is not opened, this step can be omitted:
#For 32-bit systems, execute the following command, replace your_user with the currently logged in user name sudo cp /home/<your_user>/.config/monitors.xml /var/lib/lightdm/.config #For 64-bit systems, execute the following command, replace your_user with the currently logged in user name sudo cp /home/<your_user>/.config/monitors.xml /var/lib/gdm3/.config sudo chown gdm:gdm /var/lib/gdm3/.config/monitors.xml
Execute the following command to rotate the command line display during startup:
sudo nano /boot/firmware/cmdline.txt #Add the following code at the end to rotate the command line #rotate 0 degrees fbcon=rotate:0 video=HDMI-A-1:[email protected],rotate=0 #Rotate 90 degrees fbcon=rotate:3 video=HDMI-A-1:[email protected],rotate=90 #rotate 180 degrees fbcon=rotate:2 video=HDMI-A-1:[email protected],rotate=0 #rotate 270 degrees fbcon=rotate:1 video=HDMI-A-1:[email protected],rotate=270
No KMS or FKMS driver loaded
Rotation is relatively simple, just use the following command to display rotation:
