Bug Description

Hello. I have a HP laptop (NOT a convertible laptop) and in Settings/Displays the Rotate option is set tot 'None'. But after a few minutes (after startup) the Rotate option is chainging to clockwise and my screen is showing the desktop rotated to 90 degrees. If i change it back to 'None' is valid only for the desktop the login screen is still at 90 degrees.
Please do something is very annoying

I think I found the problem for that bug. I switched to Ubuntu Budgie because that 'auto screen rotation' was very annoying and I found out that the new installed os had some screen glitches and flashes like in elementary, so I went to the BIOS and found out that my video drive memory was set tot „Auto”. I modified that value to 512mb and now everything works fine.
I didn't switch back to elementary os yet but I'm guessing that if that solved the glitches and screen flashes on Budgie it will solve the screen rotation from elementary os.
