Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau

I installed Nouveau driver to enable monitor in Portrait position for
working with Open Office and reading Emails.

I go to System> Preference? Display

Rotation: Normal

When i set it to 'Left' and apply my monitor is adjusted to portrait
mode - Great!

However, page keeps refreshing regularly seen as a wave from right to left. Its slow and annoying. This happens everytime i change workspace or execute anything which changes the page. If i'm in xchat it happens everytime i type or someone else types and hits 'enter'
Also, i opened an avi and it crashes. Not sure whether movies should work in portrait mode or not, and i wouldn't normally look at a movie in Portrait, for that i'd return to Landscape mode, but i checked just to see out of curiosity. But certainly for Open Office to be workable in Portrait mode smooth graphics are required.
