Recently I booted Ubuntu 18.04 Live USB and I faced annoying problem. Screen was rotated and there was no rotate options in settings. I had to search not so obvious places in Internet, so I share this Q&A.

          You should use xrandr command.
          xrandr -o normal takes your screen back to normal (landscape) rotation.



          You can check this command typing xrandr -o left and then get back to normal.
