How can I stop screen rotation when switching between different users
I'm on 18.04.1 on an HP laptop and for some reason the screen orientation flips when I switch users, any ideas how I can stop that happening? The display is flipped but the menus are where they should be so if I click where they 'should be' then they appear in the diagonally opposite location.
If I then switch user again it flips back and all is normal.
Tried locking the rotation on the user I'm on but that doesn't help.
