I've tested to rotate with xrandr. But it doesn't seems to work:

[meego at localhost ~]$ xrandr -o left

X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
   Major opcode of failed request:  149 (RANDR)
   Minor opcode of failed request:  2 (RRSetScreenConfig)
   Serial number of failed request:  14
   Current serial number in output stream:  14

I've tested all other orientation settings, but only "normal" works.

  -o <normal,inverted,left,right,0,1,2,3>
             or --orientation <normal,inverted,left,right,0,1,2,3>

Regards Jörn
