Debian Stretch / Gnome: disable sensor-based screen rotation
I still have a constant problem of an HP Zbook screen being randomly rotated by Gnome based on some bad sensor data in the laptop. While I can rotate back with fn-f4, this often causes applications to crash, etc.
I would like to disable the auto-rotation feature altogether. How can I turn off this thing?
