Title:

  of xorg-server

Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in xorg-server source package in Xenial:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Display rotation does not work when the NVIDIA driver is used. This is caused by a distro patch to xserver which disables it, because the NVIDIA driver had issues in the past.

  NVIDIA Graphics driver 375.66 has supported the rotation since Ubuntu
  16.04.

  [Test case]
  Install nvidia blob, try to rotate with xrandr or the display capplet.

  [Regression potential]
  No other distro shipped with such a patch, so there should be minimal risk of regressing anything.
