Trying to install 17.10 on Asus laptop. 16.04 worked fine but 17.10 boots 90 degrees off (screen is rotated as if a tablet was rotated). Laptop is a trasformer type so if I rotate is rotates the screen.

The installation disk will show the screen 90 degrees off. When installed, the screen will right itself very nicely. To correct the screen from the the DVD boot, open a terminal and type..."gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.peripherals.touchscreen orientation-lock true"

There is the button available - I simply turned my laptop 90 degrees until the screen orientation was how I wanted it. Then, in the upper right corner, click the drop-down arrow...

Right next to the Power Button, is an Orientation-Lock button. You will notice once you return your laptop to the correct rotation that the desktop orientation has been locked to the correct orientation.
