Bug Description
CID: 201206-11410 (HP Pavilion 23 AIO)
The rotation test will be stuck at the first rotation (left), if the nVidia proprietary driver was in use.
Step:
1. Install the nVidia proprietary driver and reboot.
2. Run the rotation test.
Expected Result:
The screen will rotate through all four directions, and go back to normal at the end.
Actual Result:
The screen will rotate to "left" and stayed there, won't back to normal at the end. Test Failed.
But I can freely to rotate it with xrandr -o "directions" or by using the Display utility.
This make me wondering if this is a bug of checkbox.
Note:
1. Since we don't have any available systems that with a same video card (GeForce 610M) here, unable to get results for cross-references.
System list: https:/
2. Tried with all three drivers (current / current-update / experimental) and the one downloaded the the nVidia website.
3. BTW, why we're using the xrandr from checkbox.contrib instead of the xrandr -o command to do the rotation directly?

"BTW, why we're using the xrandr from checkbox.contrib instead of the xrandr -o command to do the rotation directly?"
This is a good question - this module was actually contributed by someone from outside the team, so we should try and find out what their rationale was.
