Public bug reported:
i've had this issue several times and twice during a new installation.
it will happen randomly but mostly a few mins in to a boot up after
being logged in, the screen will turn black for a moment and when it
comes back the screen that is being displayed will be displaying 90
degrees rotated counterclockwise. the only way i can get it to go back
is to restart the system, and after several times i found a auto rotate
lock option but i don't know why my laptop would be thinking it's being
rotated while sitting level on a table?
