** Summary changed:
- Screen randomly flips 180 degreese twice
+ Screen randomly flips 180 degrees
** Description changed:
- I'm running Ubuntu 18.04 on an HP 350 G1 laptop. Randomly, the screen
- will become flipped, go black for a second, and then return to normal.
+ I'm running Ubuntu 18.04 on an HP 350 G1 laptop. According to jstest-
+ gtk, the laptop has a ST LIS3LV02DL Accelerometer with three axes. Axes
+ 0 and 2 remain at 0 (center) no matter what I do. Axis 1 on the other
+ hand senses how much the base of the laptop (the lower half of the clam
+ shell, the part with the keyboard), is tilted. When the laptop is level,
+ the Axis's value should be 0, but it can be anywhere from -20 to 20
+ while the laptop is being typed on. When its reading is above 0, the
+ screen flips. These two facts cause the screen to flip seemingly
+ randomly while it's being used.
+
+ Workarround: Lock the screen orientation in GNOME.
