Rui - I'm not sure if omnewrotate was causing the general unstability - but I do think it was probably what caused me to miss the call. I had another experience with epdfview where when I held the FR horizontally I had to click about 1.5 cm to the right of the 'next page' button to get it to actually go to the next page. After holding it vertically and then horizontally again, it was fine. <br>
<br>I think I might try TR4 again with a manual screen rotater and see if I have better luck.<br><br>Warren<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, May 24, 2009 at 5:19 PM, Rui Miguel Silva Seabra <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:rms@1407.org">rms@1407.org</a>></span> wrote:<br>

</div></div>Pretty sure omnewrotate ain't the problem, I've run into that before installing<br>
it.<br>
<br>
Right now I suspend manually in order to check it's working, but it seems<br>
to be triggered by missed calls.<br>
