Hi,

In 2.4, is there a standard way (API) for drivers to support rotation?
In 2.6, I think applications use the var info structure to set the
rotate field. How do applications tell 2.4 framebuffer drivers to
cause rotation on the fly?  Would be great if someone can shed some
light.

Thanks,
Nishant

Nope. Only 2.6 supports that feature.
