Bug Description
I've just installed Ubuntu 16.04.1 in dualboot on top of an Asus UX360UA, alongside with Windows 10. I've already installed the updates meanwhile.
This laptop has a 360º degree rotating screen. When I physically rotate my screen, Windows (or some installed driver, I don't know) detects that. Consequently, the image being displayed in the screen is rotated 180º and the keyboard is blocked. However, Ubuntu doesn't do nothing when I rotate the screen.
I think this is a bug because a fresh Ubuntu installation should recognise these laptop features. I searched a little bit and it seems there are some workarounds on this, but I guess Ubuntu installation should recognise this automatically?
