I have an ASUS TP500LAB and I currently have Gnome, Cinnamon and Unity on Ubuntu 16.04. My Gnome environment works well, but everything is upside down and I have noticed some touch screen features and this being a 2in1 computer I would love to take advantage of this, but the automatic screen rotation is backwards. If I turn my device upside down the screen will rotate like it is supposed to, but it is always in the upside down position. Even when I have my laptop in the usual "laptop" position. Does anyone know a fix for this? I suppose what I need to to calibrate the gyroscope somehow?

Also, this is completely random, but which is better for gaming on? Cinnamon, Cinnamon (software rendering), or Gnome?
This is my first time using the forums. Bear with me please <3
