Hi Berrnhard,

I use this for my rotation-needs now:
http://www.krizka.net/projects/autorotate/

It's a python script which polls
/sys/devices/platform/thinkpad_acpi/hotkey_tablet_mode

It's not as elegant as an ACPI event, since it requires polling, but it
also rotates the screen according to the accelerometer, which is quite
cool. Since that already requires polling, the missing ACPI event really
doesn't hurt much.
