There is a program call xrandr and other similar guis that can do this.
There is probably a setting in xorg.conf for this I expect. Google for
'xrandr'.
I have installed xrandr on my laptop which has pivot screen. however i
am only able to get this to work for increasing/decreasing screen
resolutions and not for changing layout from "landscape" to "portrait"
or reversing/reflecting x or y axis.
OTOH I have really not goone deeper in to error messages but they are
reproduced below. BTW right now I am running Ubuntu7.04 but earlier
this was loaded with Debian Etch with same results.
