Public bug reported: When the machine has accelerometer, rotate the machine, the display orientation can be changed in 18.04
If connect to an external monitor, can't change the orientation to Portrait Right, Portrait Left ...etc. manually, because "Orientation" was disappeared in Settings->Devices->Displays This is not friendly to the user who need to change the orientation when connect to an external monitor. (For example: need to review documents/codes on external monitor with Portrait mode) ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 18.04 Package: xorg 1:7.7+19ubuntu7 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.15.0-1008.11-oem 4.15.18 Uname: Linux 4.15.0-1008-oem x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.9-0ubuntu7.2 Architecture: amd64 BootLog: Error: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/var/log/boot.log' CompositorRunning: None CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Thu Jul 5 09:58:23 2018 DistUpgraded: Fresh install DistroCodename: bionic DistroVariant: ubuntu DpkgLog: ExtraDebuggingInterest: Yes GraphicsCard: Intel Corporation UHD Graphics 620 [8086:5917] (rev 07) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Dell UHD Graphics 620 [1028:0808] InstallationDate: Installed on 2018-06-26 (8 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 18.04 "Bionic" - Build amd64 LIVE Binary 20180608-01:51 Lsusb: Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0eef:c0aa D-WAV Scientific Co., Ltd Bus 001 Device 003: ID 8087:0a2a Intel Corp.
