Script to rotate the screen and touch devices on modern Linux desktops. Great for convertible laptops.

rotate_desktop.sh

#!/bin/bash
#
# rotate_desktop.sh
#
# Rotates modern Linux desktop screen and input devices to match. Handy for
# convertible notebooks. Call this script from panel launchers, keyboard
# shortcuts, or touch gesture bindings (xSwipe, touchegg, etc.).
#
# Using transformation matrix bits taken from:
#   https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/InputCoordinateTransformation
#

# Configure these to match your hardware (names taken from `xinput` output).
TOUCHPAD='SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad'
TOUCHSCREEN='Atmel Atmel maXTouch Digitizer'

Thank you for the script.

On yoga 11s with my custom kernel-5.15.31 on Slackware-15 I changed only one line

TOUCHSCREEN='Atmel Atmel maXTouch Digitizer'
vs
TOUCHSCREEN='Atmel Atmel maXTouch Digitizer Touchscreen'

I got similar problem, I write this simple utility app that reads sensors and rotate screen + digitizer.
