Description Ilia Mirkin 2020-03-25 00:23:41 UTC

This is fixed upstream with

https://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/commit/?h=server-1.20-branch&id=1c3e51dabadbf65e7fdedbebbdcd19a85fb03e34

The failure is that it crashes on start with both xf86-video-nouveau and modesetting with:

Whenever rotation is pre-configured in xorg.conf, e.g.

Section "Monitor"
  Identifier "Mon0"
  Option "Rotate" "right"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
  Identifier "Mon1"
  Option "Rotate" "left"
  Option "LeftOf" "DP-1-8"
EndSection

Please include the above patch in the ebuild. For now I have it in my user patches.

Reproducible: Always
