A simple application for GNU/Linux which uses XRandR to rotate the screen of MacBooks equipped with a motion/tilt sensor. It will automatically change the screen orientation when the laptop is tilted.
The application lives in the system tray and provides feedback in the form of an arrow pointing towards where 'down' is. It can be easily disabled with a single click for the purpose of playing physical neverball...
The application works on MacBooks who feature the tilt-senor (See the Ubuntu Wiki for details) on GNU/Linux. It works by loading a text-file produced by the driver which contains live info on the device. This is used in prefrence to the joystick driver as it offers more information (such as g-force) and updates at a higher frequency.
