Unable to set display orientation to inverted landscape
All I've found so far by Googling is the 'why is my monitor rotated' issues; My monitor is actually mounted upside-down (mounted under a cabinet, so upside-down makes cable-management easier)
- I'm running a fresh install of Bionic
- the settings menu has the options, but all options have no effect
- xrandr is also unable to help
- possibly an Xauthority issue, but I've no idea where to begin fixing this... :(
user:~$ xrandr -q
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1280 x 1024, maximum 8192 x 8192
XWAYLAND0 connected 1280x1024+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 340mm x 270mm
1280x1024 59.89*+
user:~$ sudo xrandr --output XWAYLAND0 --rotate right
[sudo] password for ubu-user:
