I don't see how this has anything to do with the orientation program itself
which uses xrandr to actually rotate the screen. You could try rotating the
screen manually with xrandr --orientation ...
to see if you can recreate the
problem.

I have had the orientation and sensors working pretty well in Ubuntu 14.04, but upon the upgrade to 14.10, I've been experiencing screen tearing when flipping into tent mode directly from the default orientation.
If I rotate to the vertical orientation first and then go upside-down, then it seems to transition smoothly, but from default to upside-down orientation causes the viewport to show inverted duplications of the bottom half of the screen and duplicate cursors for each orientation.
I've tried both with just the compiled orientation program and also with the compiled ideapad-laptop module, just to make sure I wasn't seeing the issue because the orientation program was expecting something to be in place. The sensors program won't compile (and the docs advise against using it), but the default 3.16 sensors drivers seem to be otherwise working okay.
I've attached a screenshot so you can see what I mean.

I have the same phenomena when using my script that uses xrandr: https://gist.github.com/rubo77/daa262e0229f6e398766

Good catch! I've added my name to the affected list On Nov 21, 2014 4:02 PM, "Jeff Cook" notifications@github.com wrote:

It seems to be a problem with the intel graphics driver.
Compiling latest intel driver (xf86-video-intel - 2.99.917) fixed it for me (Yoga 3 Pro):

It also fixed the broken shadows of windows in Gnome 3.
I can also confirm no tearing with latest intel drivers on Ubuntu 14.10
