well the thing is this - if you get your hands on the laptop and physically turn it 90° then the touchpad also turns 90°, while the external mouse stays in the same orientation. i think when you rotate the monitor it just treats it as a 768x1366 desktop instead of a 1366x768 desktop (1366x768 is the resolution of this monitor), and then pushing the mouse forward goes up the rotated desktop. sliding up on the touchpad would also correctly go up on the rotated desktop except ubuntu/xorg considers this from the perspective of a unrotated touchpad. the probably is occuring not because the monitor or desktop has rotated- the problem is occuring because the TOUCHPAD has rotated.
