Bug#531486: regression: xrandr does not rotate correctly
Package: xorg
Version: 1:7.3+18
Severity: normal
Since upgrading to the latest version of the X server (Intel 852/855 chipset),
whenever I try to launch "xrandr --rotate" on my 1024x768 display, instead of
the rotated display going 1024px down and 768px across (so that it fills my
tablet), it goes 1024px across and 768px down. This means that I lose the
right-hand side of my display and there's a black bar at the bottom of my
rotated screen. I can 'unrotate' it back successfully.
This did work before upgrading X. I suspect that it's a problem with the
Intel driver but I can't prove it.
