Hi,

I'm trying to get dosbox running on Yopy, an ARM based linux PDA. First crosscompile went flawlessly, dosbox is running without problems.

Since the Yopy only has a screen of 240x320 pixels, I'd like to hack in a mode to rotate the screen 90 degrees, and scale the image down (just throw away half the pixels, for example)

Can one of the developers give me some quick hints about how hard this would be, where to look in the code ?

Thanks,

Zevv

Would it be feasable to simply have the user rotate the whole PDA 90 degrees in his/her hand? I've seen console emulators on PDAs that worked that way. It seems like it would save precious CPU/rendering power.
