identical problem (X1350 PRO) When I rotate, The screen isn't correct at all, I have artifacts everywhere, not all windows are visible. When I attempt to set the rotation back, X crashes? I'm back at an automatic login screen (unrotated) which then logins to the same messed up screen as before. No errors in dmesg/messages
On ThinkPad T60 with X1400/RV515 chip, rotated display is visible, but has artifacts: system menus appear on top and bottom of screen. Rotating back ends desktop session, but it restarts with normal rotation.

After logging in, it restarts rotated, and rotating back ends the session again.
Thanks for the bug report. We have reviewed the information you have provided above, and there is some additional information we require that will be helpful in our diagnosis of this issue. Please attach your X server log file (/var/log/Xorg.*.log) and the output of "dmesg" to the bug report as individual *uncompressed, text/plain* file attachments using the bugzilla file attachment link below. Posting a link to your smolt profile would be helpful as well. We will review this issue again once you've had a chance to attach this information. Thank you in advance. --- Fedora Bugzappers volunteer triage team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers
Created attachment 337816 [details] Xorg log file after rotation and attempt to rotate back I rotated left, got a garbled screen. I attempted to tab back to the rotation dropdown, select Normal, tab back to Apply and activate it, but I'm not sure if I actually did that because the screen remained garbled. I used ssh to connect to the machine (starting sshd and opening the firewall before the rotation attempt) and capture these files. The smolt profile link is in the original bug report.
Created attachment 337817 [details] dmesg output after rotation
Created attachment 337832 [details] Xorg.log Since xorg crashed, I assume this would be the second log as the first is moved to .old
Created attachment 337833 [details] Xorg As X crashed, I would assume this is the original log moved to .old
(In reply to comment #9) > Created an attachment (id=337833) [details] > Xorg > > As X crashed, I would assume this is the original log moved to .old X did not crash. I believe there was a kernel issue of some sort. In any case, there was no other Xorg log file, such as Xorg.1.log or any other file that starts with X in /var/log/.
Well, not for the original rotation no, X didn't crash. However when I tried to return to normal output, X died. I got the login screen again (non-rotated), at which point it auto logged me back in, to a garbled rotated screen. Attempting to set it back yet again X dies/crashes for me...

My apologies Nathaniel. I thought your post was a reply to my log post. I'm still new at bugzilla and didn't notice you posted your log file to add to the information here. I'll try to be more aware in the future. To repair the rotation issue, you can log in to a console and edit ~username/.config/monitors.xml and change the <rotation> setting to "normal". I had to do that on a LiveUSB I'm using on another laptop. For bugzappers: If I have this same or similar issue on another machine, should I also post those log files and smolt link here, or start another bug? (Machine is ThinkPad T60 with Radeon X1400 chip.)
If you are sure that the issues are identical, please post additional logs here, otherwise feel free to open a different bug. Thanks for the logs, switching to ASSIGNED. --- Fedora Bugzappers volunteer triage team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers

On an ATI Technologies Inc Radeon X800 SE (R430) (PCIE) rev 0, rotating the desktop by 90 and 180 degrees is fully working now as opposed to the Radeon Test Day spin. Installed packages include: - kernel-2.6.29.1-70.fc11.x86_64 - xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.12.2-2.fc11.x86_64 - xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.6.1-1.fc11.x86_64
Joachim, Thanks for testing the fix. Closing. --- Fedora Bugzappers volunteer triage team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers
