Auto-Rotation on KDE Plasma ( Wayland ) – Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Tablet Gen 3

CONTEXT -------- Debian 13 (Trixie) + KDE Plasma 5.27 on Wayland.   Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Tablet Gen 3 (QHD 3000×2000, i7-8550U).   iio-sensor-proxy detects the accelerometer but doesn’t publish orientation on DBus.   Solution: use raw accelerometer values and rotate via kscreen-doctor (KDE’s Wayland tool). REQUIREMENTS ------------- sudo apt install kscreen   Accelerometer visible at /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device*/in_accel_x_raw FINAL SCRIPT — ~/.local/bin/autorotate-wayland.sh ------------------------------------------------- #!/usr/bin/env bash # Auto-rotate for KDE Plasma (Wayland) – ThinkPad X1 Tablet Gen 3 # Reads raw accelerometer data and rotates screen via kscreen-doctor. # Touch/pen mapping handled automatically by Wayland. # Create ~/.config/autorotate.lock to disable rotation temporarily.

CPU(s) load average

The load average is the average of the CPU load in a given period of time. It takes into account processes that are:

  • Actively running on a CPU
  • Considered runnable, but waiting for a CPU to become available
  • Sleeping: i.e. waiting for some kind of resource (typically, I/O) to become available

$ w
$ top (also shows real-time processes)
$ uptime

The CPU load is summarised in a line with 3 values which are 0.00 to 1.00. Translated in percentages 0% to 100%. If more than 1.00, the CPU is overloaded. If it's too high, there is probably some process in a non-responding state.

  • The first value is related to the last minute
  • The second value is related to the last 5 minutes
  • The first value is related to the last 15 minutes
