So, it seems that in the upstream kernel the physical rotation is
detected. I say this because when I rotate the 360º the keyboard is
blocked (I try to write and I can't).
However, the screen is not rotated automatically nor any clue that
something happened is shown in the screen, as we would expect.
So, I guess, the bug still exists in the upstream kernel, but with some
differences.

Title:
[Asus UX360UA] Physical screen rotation is not detected
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I've just installed Ubuntu 16.04.1 in dualboot on top of an Asus
UX360UA, alongside with Windows 10. I've already installed the updates
meanwhile.
This laptop has a 360º degree rotating screen. When I physically
rotate my screen, Windows (or some installed driver, I don't know)
detects that. Consequently, the image being displayed in the screen is
rotated 180º and the keyboard is blocked. However, Ubuntu doesn't do
nothing when I rotate the screen.
I think this is a bug because a fresh Ubuntu installation should recognise
these laptop features. I searched a little bit and it seems there are some
workarounds on this, but I guess Ubuntu installation should recognise this
automatically?
