EndeavourOS uses Arch packages for screen-rotation: gnome-shell-extension-screen-autorotate and mutter-auto-rotation). GNOME extension named Screen Rotate (https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/5389/screen-rotate/) restore that functionality. The bug is a result of change done prior to Mutter 40 affecting majority of convertible laptops. Several solutions were already proposed and the best one is found on Screen Rotate extension. Only step is for upstream Mutter apply the fix. See full details: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/1686 I already tried the Screen Rotate extension, but it does not work still. My question then is: is this a bug from `iio-sensors-proxy`? I gave up using Fedora because of this, maybe when that change is merged, I'll try again. Testing on Dell inspiron 14 7425 2-in-1, iio-sensors-proxy works as intended:
monitor-sensor
Waiting for iio-sensor-proxy to appear
+++ iio-sensor-proxy appeared
=== Has accelerometer (orientation: normal)
=== No ambient light sensor
=== No proximity sensor
Accelerometer orientation changed: right-up
Accelerometer orientation changed: normal
Accelerometer orientation changed: left-up
Accelerometer orientation changed: normal
It seems like a Mutter issue.
