No more Screen Rotation in Debian 9.5
After upgrading from Jessie to Stretch (stable), i can no longer rotate
the screen from landscape to portrait. The same happens after a fresh
install of 9.5 onto an empty disc.
I use an nvidia GeForce 9500 graphics adapter.
After changing the display orientation settings in the system settings,
the mouse cursor moves vice versa, but the graphics output doesn't
rotate, and key strokes and mouse clicks no longer show effect.
After hardware reset, I can no longer log on to the system. A log on
screen appears, but the keyboard doesn't work.
With Jessie, rotation worked fine.
Linux version 4.9.0-7-amd64 (gcc version 6.3.0 20170516 (Debian
6.3.0-18+deb9u1) ) #1 SMP Debian 4.9.110-1 (2018-07-05)
Apperently, there is a difference in the "nouveau"-section of dmesg:
