Monitor (Screen) Orientation

[Guest]

The orientation of my monitor has been rotated 90 degrees clockwise. I
inadvertantly was pressing random keys. Any idea how I can get the
orientation back to a normal landscape?

While in the 'sideways' mode, the mouse keypad orientation is also skewed.

Thanks.

Folks here often say try Ctrl+Alt+up arrow.

The ability to rotate the screen image is a feature of your video
card, to help it work with monitors that rotate to portrait
orientation. You accidentally pressed Ctrl-Alt, and some arrow key.
Rotate it back using those keys.
