Summary: Touchscreen Orientation Manager for touchscreen tablets (e.g. Surface RT/Touch screen ARM Chromebooks) running GNU/Linux with X11

Description: 

Screen Orientation Manager for touchscreen tablets and convertible
laptops running GNU/Linux with X11

You can use this app to easily rotate the touchscreen input,
display orientation, touchpad and stylus input in one go.

While automatic rotation of input devices works seamlessly in GNOME
and KDE on Wayland, many entry-level devices use lightweight desktop
environments like XFCE, MATE, or LXDE, which rely on X11 and lack
support for automatic touchscreen input rotation. As a result, when
the screen is rotated, touch inputs can become misaligned (e.g.,
after rotating the screen, touching the top-left corner might register
as a tap in the bottom-right). This app resolves that issue. It also
runs in the system tray, making it easy to access when using the device
in tablet mode.
