Description

I also just ran into this issue, while doing some work in gnome/wayland/fedora 25 beta+updates-testing the internal display on my notebook suddenly got rotated by 90 degrees (no external displays connected). Restoring the situation on the fly doesn't seem possible. control-center doesn't offer the possibility to rotate wayland displays and xrandr commands always complete successfully, but have no effect on wayland. Nothing special can be found in journalctl which could explain the automatic rotation. After some more debugging along with some folks on IRC in #gnome-shell it turned out that my laptop (HP EliteBook 850 G3) does have an accelerometer after all (something I wasn't aware of until now). This accelerometer was to blame for the 'random' gnome-shell display orientation change. @Couret Charles-Antoine: you can verify if your system also has an accelerometer by running the command "gdbus introspect --system --dest net.hadess.SensorProxy --object-path /net/hadess/SensorProxy" and check if it contains something like "readonly b HasAccelerometer = true;" Yes, I have this property. It strange, it was not mentioned in my Elitebook 8560w documentation. Created attachment 1219099 [details]
HasAccelerometer property
This might be related to #1394104 I suggest marking one as a duplicate of the other Any way to blacklist that accelerometer? This message is a reminder that Fedora 25 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 25. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '25'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 25 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Fedora 25 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2017-12-12. Fedora 25 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
