Hello!
I'm attempting to configure a hotkey on my Lenovo ThinkPad Twist (s230u) ultraportable tablet to rotate the display 90 degrees using xrandr each time the small "lock" button is pressed above the power button. I have the rotate script written and tested as working successfully.
I have the hotkey configured to trigger an ACPI event via a config file in '/etc/acpi/events/', and am able to correctly trigger the action from the hotkey ACPI event when I run 'acpid' as root from the CLI.
When I run it via 'systemctl start acpid', the ACPI action is not taken.
I've switched on debug mode by changing '/etc/sysconfig/acpid' to:
And I see the following in '/var/log/messages' when I press the hotkey:
Here are the contents of '/etc/acpi/actions/rotate.sh':
And the contents of '/usr/local/bin/rotate.sh':
Any assistance you can offer would be much appreciated. Please don't hesitate to let me know if any additional information that I may provide.
Thanks!
