Minisforum V3 Automatic Screen Rotation

I was able to mostly apply the process outlined in https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=297269

My installation differs in that I am using dracut vs mkinitcpio. So I followed procedures I found online to create an acpi-fix.conf file in /etc/dracut.conf.d/

Mine has:
acpi_override="yes"
acpi_table_dir="/etc/initcpio/acpi_override/"

I used dracut -v -f to rebuild and it appears to pick up the aml file, based on part of the output:
dracut: *** Packaging ACPI tables to override BIOS provided ones ***
dracut:    Adding ACPI table: /etc/initcpio/acpi_override//minisforum_v3_dsdt.aml

However I still get no accelerometer.

monitor-sensor
    Waiting for iio-sensor-proxy to appear
+++ iio-sensor-proxy appeared
=== No accelerometer
=== Has ambient light sensor (value: 1.000000, unit: lux)
=== No proximity sensor
=== No compass

Unclear to me what I am missing.

Re: Minisforum V3 Automatic Screen Rotation

Issue is resolved. For anyone in the future,

To resolve this I just had to do: dracut --regenerate-all --force

Seems you have to do "regenerate all" for it to work.
