What triggers the bug: 1) Set rotation to (for example) right in gnome-display-properties, click Apply button, confirm to Keep settings and click Close on gnome-display-properties window. Now your screen is rotated to right. It is expected. 2) Change screen rotation to normal (e.g. through xrandr, grandr-applet, gnome-randr-applet, or something else). Screen rotation is normal. It is also expected. 3) Logout. And Login. Screen is rotated to right. It is what we didn't expected. We expected that the screen rotation will be normal as we set it in e.g. xrandr.
It is caused by ~/.gnome2/monitors.xml, where the changes from gnome- display-properties are saved. Settings from this file is loaded after login. Maybe this should be bug in the other packages (grandr-applet, xrandr, gnome-randr-appletand so on) that they don't save changes in display properties also to ~/.gnome2/monitors.xml . I think that best solution of this is to save display properties (resolution, rotation) to ~/.gnome2/monitors.xml file before logout (when user click Log off, Restart, Shut down...).
