Now that you say this... I very rarely do orientation changes, but I
once had this too (no effect). It was after a suspend/resume cycle
on my iPAQ, maybe 2 weeks ago (with whatever mb package was in
familiar unstable then). I just tried the mbdock rotation applet, so
I can't say for sure that it wasn't the applet itself.
