>Release:        8.2R
>Organization:
>Environment:
8.2-Release GENERIC i386
>Description:
# xrandr -o 1
virtually rotate screen, but makes him totally black
# xrandr -o 0
return to normal usage

Release versions
xrandr-1.3.2
xorg-1.7.5,1
xf86-video-intel-2.7.1,3

After update
xrandr-1.3.4
xorg-1.7.7_1,1
xf86-video-intel-2.7.1_4

>How-To-Repeat:
Pure GENERIC machine, tested on i946 and i910 chipsets
Install almost minimal package set:

# pkg_add -r xf86-video-intel
<installs over 80 packages>
# pkg_add -r xf86-input-keyboard xf86-input-mouse
# pkg_add -r xorg-fonts-cyrillic font-misc-misc font-alias
# pkg_add -r xinit rxvt xrandr xkbcomp

# echo rxvt > ~/.xinitrc
# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/dbus onestart
# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/hald onestart
# xinit
X.org server starts with default config

# xrandr
 prints out correct information
# xrandr -o 0
 rotate to normal mode (just do nothing now)
# xrandr -o 1
 should rotate left
And it really rotates - mouse cursor is rotated, mouse movement is "rotated", but screen is pure black (only mouse cursor can move, changing its shape accordingly)
After
# xrandr -o 0
 everything become normal again

Updating ports (2011-04-15) doesn't solve the problem.
>Fix:
xrandr 1.3.0
works with
xorg-server-1.6.1_1 & xf86-video-intel-2.7.1

>Audit-Trail:
>Unformatted:
