Screen is rotated sideways

Hey there!

I just installed Zorin 12.1 Ultimate on my laptop and am typing this with the screen rotated clockwise.

My laptop is one of those ones that fold backwards into a tablet with a screen that changes orientation automatically.

On boot, after the BIOS logo screen, the Zorin boot logo screen comes up in the correct orientation. Once I reach the login screen it will either load the screen rotated clockwise to the right or stay in the correct orientation for a moment before automatically rotating.

When holding my laptop sideways, as if I were using it as a portrait mode tablet, it automatically realigns to what should be the correct orientation.

Fully updated it and did the additional drivers.

Thanks for your help!

That works Well until I need to restart my computer

EDIT:

For a reference to anyone having this issue. I did manage a fix, but at the cost of having to disable the automatic rotation.

On the task bar, click the WIFI/Volume/Battery controls next to the clock. There will be a button to turn off the rotation next to the settings button. I did do the xrandr rotation changes prior to this, just an FYI in case it affected anything.
