I'm not as familiar with Ubuntu, but it sounds like the hardware has some sort of orientation sensing function and X probably samples that when it starts up. I wonder what would happen if you press Ctrl-Alt-Bksp. Usually that kills the X server, which typically will automatically restart right away, and should sense the correct orientation. I'm sure there's a setting for it, too, but it would take some digging for me to find. Any others out there that have an idea?
