Gentoo user here. I've just been trying to figure out exactly where this fails to see whether I can do something about it. I'm thinking that if it's already possible to rotate through xorg.conf, making it work through RandR can't be that hard. The request is made in XRRSetScreenConfigAndRate of libXrandr and the BadMatch reply is received here. What I can't figure out is where the request actually gets handled and where that BadMatch reply is actually generated. The request/response mechanism seems to be handled by libX11 but this doesn't have anything to do with the actual operation. It must surely be driver-specific so I've looked at xf86-video-intel and xf86-video- radeonhd and while there is RandR rotation stuff in there, I can't see anything that looks like it's dealing with such a request. I've not really hacked X before. Maybe I'll ask on a mailing list unless you guys have any ideas?
