xrandr --rotate crashes X

[Felix Blanke]

Hi,

it's me again :)

Someone of the loop-aes dev. uploaded a new version which works with 2.6.36, so now
everything works fine expect virtualbox (but I'll find a solution).


Switched to the evergreen_accel branch and the rotation works now. Thanks a lot for
your help!


Regards,
Felix
