Ubuntu 18.04 - Screen goes black when rotated to portrait mode

I'm running Ubuntu 18.04 on a Lenovo X1 Yoga with touchscreen capabilities. When I rotate the laptop to portrait mode, the screen just goes black. When I rotate back to landscape, the screen returns.



EDIT: Just found out this only happens in Wayland, X seems to work fine.
The issue in this post seems to be the same as my issue: 18.04 Ubuntu with Wayland, screen will not display in portrait

  • I'm back to version 18.04 and the problem returned, does anyone know how to fix for this version?
