 Some X servers do not have rotate support.  This causes non-zero exit from
 xrandr started by keyhandler.py.  The code in 0.84 calls xmodmap
 regardless.  This results in user confusion as keys do not do what they
 should.

 A patch is to be attached.

 Current code in HEAD does not have rotate support, so this ticket is only
 relevant to 0.84 maintenance.
