Screensaver in portrait orientation?

Whenever my screensaver cuts in, it displays in landscape view. I've never understood this. I've seen the screensaver on the E65, and that's portrait, which makes a lot more sense considering how you'd normally rest the phone down.

Is there any way I can get my screensaver to come up in portrait? I've 'hacked' my phone, if that helps...

I use cClock as screensaver, it's free and I think the latest version is even signed.

Forgot to mention, I've been using cClock. It's lush :)

Point of this post was - it's still showing up in landscape view, so if I hold the phone upright, the time is on its side...

Ah sorry, it's been quite a while since I had a N95-2, I forgot that the screensaver seems to be fixed as landscape. There must be a hack for this, I just can't remember right now which and where.

I think the N95-1 does it as well. I remember when my mate first got one last year, and thought the screensaver was a bit rubbish.

All the screenshots I saw of cClock showed it in portrait orientation so I'm a bit puzzled. Does everyone with a '95 find that with cClock?

N95-1 definitely does cClock in portrait mode as default, I've had two of them.

Just found the preview option within cClock, and that shows in portrait. Very strange... Cheers for letting me know about the N95-1 anyways, that gives me a vague hope :P

I'll have plenty of time on my hands at work tomorrow, I'll take a look for a hack then!

PS: That is a SWEET wolf fyi
