Either the bug title should be renamed to something more generic or a
new bug should be created. As far as I can tell, many users have this
problem but don't necessarily have the screen overlap issue. At least,
overlap is not mentioned in [the reddit
post](https://www.reddit.com/r/Ubuntu/comments/g82u58/cant_rotate_monitor_orientation_in_ubuntu_2004/)
that links here.

In any case, how can I help find the bug? NVidia server settings can fix
the monitor rotation, but I cannot figure out how to persist those
changes.

My situation is even worse than described. Sometimes when applying the
settings in "Displays," the setting changes to "Single Display" from
"Join Displays" without my input, and the monitor I want in portrait
mode goes black while Gnome still thinks it is part of my desktop...
even after I click the "revert" button.

As a software engineer I would like to help to track down the bug and
fix it. However, I don't see any instructions in mutter's README.md
about how to build and test from source. Same for
https://github.com/GNOME/gnome-control-center. Any pointers to
documentation would be appreciated.
