Can you try 
xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.6.0-15.fc11.i586
xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.6.99.902-1.fc11.i586
with KMS disabled (boot kernel with i915.modeset=0)? 
If so, attaching log with that config will be good.

I don't see why those are required, but whatever...

The full Xorg server log after having done one rotation to the left, and restored the normal orientation.

looks like the logs you attached doesn't match your description of 

screen #0:
  dimensions:    1680x1050 pixels (445x278 millimeters)
  resolution:    96x96 dots per inch

xdpyinfo with the screen rotated left:
  dimensions:    1050x1680 pixels (445x278 millimeters)
  resolution:    60x153 dots per inch


we can't reproduce this bug any more on a Ubuntu 9.10 alpha. Can you still reproduce this bug?

I can still reproduce this bug on both of my karmic setups.

dimensions:    1050x1400 pixels (245x184 millimeters) <- thats portrait-mode

totem is still unable to play a video with the correct aspect-ratio.

Still not switching the millimeters dimensions.

With xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.9.0-2.fc12.x86_64

Still happens here with xserver 1.7.2, intel 2.9.1, and xrandr 1.3.2. The physical size is always reported landscape-wise. 

I found xrandr -o left doesn't swap the dimension(wrong), while xrandr --output LVDS1 --rotate left does(right)..

I'm seeing the same behavior with 1.7.6.901 and nouveau (debian unstable).

Is this a video driver, core randr, or utility (xrandr) bug?

Sounds like a generic randr problem.

Is there any risk of this ever getting fixed? I'm seeing exactly the same problems as the original reporter on the Gnome bug when I run totem on a screen that is rotated.

As previously reported, xrandr is showing the pixel size as reversed on the rotated screen, but not the physical size:

Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 3760 x 1600, maximum 8192 x 8192
DVI-I-1 connected primary 2560x1600+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 646mm x 406mm
   2560x1600      59.9* 
   1280x800       59.9  
DVI-I-2 connected 1200x1600+2560+0 right (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 408mm x 306mm
   1600x1200      60.0*+
   1400x1050      74.9  
   1280x1024      85.0     75.0  
   1280x960       85.0  
   1152x864       85.1     75.0  
   1024x768       85.0     75.1     70.1     60.0  
   832x624        74.6  
   800x600        85.1     72.2     75.0     60.3     56.2  
   640x480        85.0     75.0     72.8     66.7     60.0  
   720x400        70.1  

Even trying to set the size of DVI-I-2 expicitly with --fbmm doesn't seem to help as it just reverses the values if I put the small one first!

Still not fixed, this is pathetic.

Guys.... I get wrong aspect ratio video out of totem on Fedora 26 beta.

It's the same on Xorg or Wayland session.

And it seems the same issue as 8 years ago

Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 2160 x 3840, maximum 8192 x 8192
XWAYLAND0 connected 2160x3840+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 600mm x 340mm
   2160x3840     59.98*+

I guess swapping two ints when we swap two other ints is not so tremendously difficult to fix?  Or this will never be fixed and totem or some intermediate library should work around it?
