No xrandr with Nvidia 260.19.29-2 + Xorg 1.9.3.901-1

Can anyone confirm not working xrandr with the xorg in testing? I'm using it only to change screen rotation, since nvidia doesn't support anything else.

% xrandr -o left

X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)
  Major opcode of failed request:  154 (RANDR)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  2 (RRSetScreenConfig)
  Value in failed request:  0x780
  Serial number of failed request:  15
  Current serial number in output stream:  15

Hi, same problem here on gentoo with xorg-server 1.9.3.901-1 (no rotation working, resolution change worked, e.g.: xrandr -s 1280x1024)

downgrade to xorg-server 1.9.2 solved the rotation problem for me

(tryed different nvidia-drivers, currently running with 260.19.26)

Same thing here, but I've never used it before so no comment

Did anyone solve it? I'm waiting for xorg/nvidia drivers update since few weeks and it still doesn't works.

It seems this was fixed[1] on the 1.7 branch of xorg-xserver, but not on the 1.9 branch that Arch tracks.

Adding that patch to my xorg-xserver PKGBUILD allows me to rotate again.

I asked[2] on nvnews.net, and was told it's an xorg problem, so I filed a bug[3] on the xorg tracker.  No response so far.  I hope I did it properly.
