MALA Rotated my desktop 180 degrees and I cant switch it back!!

[Timoe]

I am in a dumb panic.  Hopefully someone can help me swiftly.

I was adjusting the MALA screen resolution from within MALA and after it finished mala was upside down.

I closed mala down and now my desktop is upside down.  I tried using mala to swith and flip the orientation and I tried some other resolutions and I cant get my desktop to switch back


running XP with a VGA computer monitor

thanks

WOW That a Bug I ain't heard of.
Questions:
What resolution did you get mala to set your resolution to  ? (I will try and re-create the error)
Do you have any rotation software on your PC?
What video card are you using?

[Timoe]

I dont have a video card actually.
  its a gateway PC and I have no rotation software.

the resolution I tried to get it to was 800 x 600 on the pc

and I think I tried malas 1152 x 864 x 32

Is there a way outside of MALA to just switch my orientation back?

Sorry Worked fine for me

Some video cards (like the vidia one I have) has rotation options built in, so I was thinking if that was the case it may have got confused.
I would be looking outside MaLa for a solution.
It would seem that your on-board video chip in your Gateway PC does support rotatation or it would not happen.

Can you try and find the latest video driver from the gateway website?

[Timoe]

yeah, I fixed it outside of mala.  I right clicked the desktop>properties>settings>advanced>graphics driver>graphics properties>rotation then I simply selected "normal" instead of "180 Degree"



oops.

thank you loadman
