Description of problem: While helping out with the "Fit and Finish" test day, I plugged in an external monitor, pulled up Evince on that monitor, and used the displays applet to rotate that screen (set it to "Left" instead of "Normal"). That worked, but caused the displays applet to crash. Now if I use gnome-display-properties to try to rotate the LCD back to its normal position, I get the following error: Could not apply the selected configuration" Method "ApplyConfiguration" with signature "" on interface "org.gnome.SettingsDaemon.XRANDR" doesn't exist Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): control-center-2.26.0-6.fc11.x86_64 gnome-settings-daemon-2.26.1-7.fc11.x86_64 How reproducible: Tried it twice, happened both times. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Explained above Actual results: Can't rotate screen back Expected results: Ability to rotate the screen back Additional info: Using a MacBookPro (MacBookPro3,1) Santa Rosa with an external Acer X221W LCD connected via DVI.

Are you still seeing this ? I have used the display capplet for some extensive rotation testing lately, and not seen any crashes.
I've tried, but couldn't make the capplet crash, so I consider this fixed. Please reopen if you still see this crash.
