Setup: Plug the 1600x900 HP monitor into the Aspire D255E VGA socket Boot the raring amd64 .iso (the raring i386 .iso works fine, defaults to normal rotation) Systems Settings Displays select mirror displays off select laptop display off select monitor display to 1600x900 notice that the rotation only gives two choices, counterclockwise and clockwise select apply the display is sideways get rotation to normal either by using xrandr or by selecting 1024x768 which looks a little silly on the big screen do the install boot, same thing on the systems settings displays i.e. mirror displays off etc. last install, yesterday, set to 1024 x 768 normal rotation and did apply then set to 1600x900 and the normal rotation stayed there then did apply.
On the live, why does the rotation selection "normal" not appear as a choice with the higher resolutions - on ubuntu amd64? The i386 works as expected. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1160521 Title: Selected 1600x900 gets 900x1600 rotated 90 degrees Status in “xserver-xorg-video-intel” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: raring amd64 displays 1600x900 as 900x1600 rotated 90 degrees, laying on its side. It's a bear running the mouse sideways. raring i386 displays 1600x900 fine. How do I get normal rotation? 800x600 displays with normal rotation but not 1600x900 or 1440x900.
