Bug Description

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

Rotating the screen via "Screen Resolution Preferences" or "xrandr" doesn't work correctly. The screen resolution changes (after rotating I do have a 1050x1400 resolution) but the orientation stays the same (To see the whole desktop I've to scroll down).

Rotating with xserver-xorg-video-i810 works without any problems.

I can confirm this with xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:1.9.94 on Ubuntu Feisty on a ThinkPad X60 tablet. It's exactly as Adrian reports.

With 2:2.1.1-0ubuntu2, the screen now rotates. However, there are severe graphics corruption issues - the rotated desktop is unusable. An exception to this for some reason is Firefox - although the interface elements are corrupt, webpages are drawn perfectly.
