If you want to use xvkbd after login, start it from the main menu or with xvkbd from
a shell.
33.4 Rotating Your Display
Use KRandRTray (KDE) or gnome-display-properties (GNOME) to rotate or resize
your display manually on the y. Both KRandRTray and gnome-display-properties are
applets for the RANDR extension of the X server.
Start KRandRTray or gnome-display-properties from the main menu, or enter
krandrtray or gnome-display-properties to start the applet from a shell.
After you have started the applet, the applet icon is usually added to your system tray.
If the gnome-display-properties icon does not automatically appear in the system tray,
make sure Show Displays in Panel is activated in the Monitor Resolution Settings dialog.
To rotate your display with KRandRTray, right-click the icon and select Congure
Display. Select the desired orientation from the conguration dialog.
To rotate your display with gnome-display-properties, right-click the icon and select
the desired orientation. Your display is immediately tilted to the new direction. The
orientation of the graphics tablet changes also, so it can still interpret the movement of
the pen correctly.
If you have problems changing the orientation of your desktop, refer to Section 33.7,
“Troubleshooting” (page 540) for more information.
For more information about the desktop-specic applets for the RANDR extension refer
to Section “Monitor Settings” (Chapter 3, Customizing Your Settings, ↑KDE User
Guide) and Section “Conguring Screens” (Chapter 3, Customizing Your Settings,
↑GNOME User Guide).
33.5 Using Gesture Recognition
openSUSE includes both CellWriter and xstroke for gesture recognition. Both applica-
tions accept gestures executed with the pen or other pointing devices as input for appli-
cations on the X Window System.
