OLPC where to go development advice.

I don't think there's a way to stop the button from trying to perform a
rotate (though I might be wrong), however you can register to receive a
signal when the rotation happens.  The signal is delivered over HAL's
dbus method -- you can watch it happen with "lshal --monitor".

Ubuntu has a website that allows you to search for packages containing
part of a filename:

http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=gio%2Fgio.h&mode=exactfilename&suite=intrepid&arch=any

Hope that helps,

- Chris.
