Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-control-center
On a netbook rotating the screen leaves touchpad orientation intact.
This means that when you hold your computer like a book, up goes to the
right, and right goes down. It's really irritating. While I understand
that swapping axis is not needed to input devices like mouses/mice, with
a netbook rotating the screen is great for e-books, and it'd be really
nice if the trackpad rotated to match the orientation (or if their was
an option for it to do so) so that I could hold my netbook like a book
and use the touchpad with my thumb.
