first of all you should use latest OS; don't think that's Nov'24 still.Hi,
I have faced the exact same issue than fritz24,
I use the official Raspberry Pi Touch Display with a Raspberry Pi 2 running the latest 32 bit release of November 2024.
My display support needs the screen to be rotated by 180 degrees.
If I use the Screen Layout Editor, the system shows a login screen in loop, even after a reboot (I then need to reflash the SD card).
Using the
video=DSI-1:800x480@60,rotate=180
option in the /boot/firmware/cmdline.txt, the display is rotated but the cursor is not, the touch position is correct.
Does anyone have a solution for this?
I will look for the Screen Layout Editor bug-tracker to see if this has been reported.
Thank you
If so, make sure to update/upgrade to latest revision.

add below to the overrides section in https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/bl ... verlay.dts, compile the overlay and you should be able to change panel and touch orientation via config.txt.
