SubjectRe: Framebuffer orientation
The right place to ask is "xpert@xfree86.org".

The answer is that if performance is not a major issue, implementing
this for a given graphics card is now pretty easy, using the shadow
frame buffer code.

For straight frame buffers, the TinyX server will now do this "out of the
box".
