Public bug reported: I have a 2-in-1 laptop with an accelerometer (Inspiron 13-7359). I would like the screen to change orientation automatically when the screen is rotated.
I've noticed that the accelerometer works correctly, by installing iio-sensors-proxy and manually executing d-Bus methods. I've also noticed that upstream gnome-settings-daemon uses iio-sensors-proxy whereas unity-settings-daemon does not. That's as far as I've come. Do you think we should add iio-sensors-proxy to main and the default image, and also grab Gnome's patches for orientation?
