Just to elaborate on this problem, when PocketHAL is initialised with default orientation on a WVGA device everything looks fine (no HIRES_AWARE flag in resource).
If you attempt to initialise PocketHAL with ORIENTATION_ROTATE90CCW or ORIENTATION_ROTATE90CW the screen just flips 90 degrees maintaining its default aspect ratio of 240x400, chopping off the bottom portion of the screen.
NOTE: It just isn't worth the time and effort re-coding existing programs in hi-res and have them run at a lower frame rate than originally intended. Sure modern day PPC's might be able to keep up but many older PPC's can't.
It certainly would be nice to see a fix for this problem.
