@LucyOne: That may be a side-effect on the landscape patch on non-Forma device (well, not the patch itself, but, well, you get the idea).

Unless you have shell access to do a few tests to confirm things, assume things will *NOT* behave in landscape mode on devices other than a Forma.

(i.e., I *know* the Forma does rotation right, but I have no idea what happens on other devices. If it's a software rotation, you're screwed forever and ever because there'll be no way to detect it. If it's a broken hardware rotation, that'll be annoying but potentially fixable).

In any case, rotation handling is already a massive mess, I don't want to dive into this for a patch if there's a chance it'll hit mainstream FW, where it'll probably be implemented like on the Forma (one would hope).

TL;DR: Not a miniclock issue. It rightly assumes (0, 0) is the top-left of the screen, if it isn't, blame NTX and their crazy native rotations.
