[Bug 800064] Re: touchpad rotation when monitor rotated
What do you not understand about this being a feature request and not a
hardware-specific bug?

Title:
touchpad rotation when monitor rotated
Status in xserver-xorg-input-synaptics package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
when the monitor is rotated to a portrait orientation using gnome-
display-properties (changing the rotation dropdown), and then i
physically rotate my laptop, any connected usb mice then move
correctly across the portrait screen- there are no issues with
rotation for external mice. however, ubuntu (maverick at least) does
not account for the fact that if you physically rotate your monitor,
then you're obviously going to need to physically rotate a laptop's
touchpad as well and thus the internal touchpad does not properly work
when the laptop's monitor is in a portrait mode- up on the rotated
touchpad = left, etc
not sure of what package the bug is in - probably x.org
