In gutsy, I have overcome this problem by using the driver from http://www.intellinuxgraphics.org. The following steps were used to solve the issue, until it is fixed in a gutsy package or until hardy comes out.
Install necessary dependencies for building the driver: sudo apt-get install git-core autoreconf autoconf automake automake-1.9 automake1.9 libtool xserver-xorg-dev pkg-config x11proto-xinerama-dev x11proto-randr-dev x11proto-render-dev x11proto-fonts-dev x11proto-xext- dec x11proto-render-dev x11proto-fonts-dev x11proto-xext-dev libxvmc-dev x11proto-xf86dri-dev libgl1-mesa-dev x11proto-gl-dev Download the intel driver: cd /tmp git-clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/driver/xf86-video-intel Compile the driver: cd /tmp/xf86-video-intel sh autogen.sh make sudo make install Copy the driver into the appropriate location: sudo cp /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/intel_drv.so /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/intel_drv.so.orig sudo cp /usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/intel_drv.so /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/ Logout and restart the X server. Xrandr rotation should be working great now. Keep in mind this is a temporary solution, but if you are anxious for this to work on gutsy this is a band aid that will hold you over.
