Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: nvidia-settings
I have two monitors setup with with a rotation of 90 deg left. This
works fine with nvidia-settings but using the button "Save to X
Configuration File" produces a xorg.conf that doesn't support rotation.
This results in the next bootup both monitors working but rotated
wrongly. Go back to nvidia-settings and the "Rotation Settings" option
is gone.
The only way to fix this was to copy back the old xorg.conf.backup file
to xorg.conf and restart X.
I have attached the two files, xorg.conf *allows rotation support*
xorg.conf.backup *doesn't*
