My installed packages are as attached. I'm pretty sure the morning of
July 26 my system was upgraded. Apparently successfully. I shutdown the
system. then returned in the evening. When it rebooted all text looked
rotated 180 degrees around the X axis (left-right in the plane of the
screen). The text is drawn where it should be for most things. The login
menu is normal, but after logging in everything is rotated. Menus were
drawn so the text for the top item was really at the bottom of the menu,
but you had to click where it should have been drawn. The whole menu was
top to bottom reversed.
I submitted a bug report using the nvidia tool. It created a file, and I'm
uploading that. It is the only thing I have that may hold a clue. They replied
and gave me a series of steps to follow. What worked was for me to remove the
following packages: bumblebee, ubuntu-desktop, nvidia-common, nvidia-current,
nvidia-settings. I had to do this from the a console after "stop gdm". Then the
display was normal. Reinstalling the same packages again succeeded and all is
normal again.
