Abstract:
A computer system comprising that has a display screen that displays information from a computing device. An auxiliary device such as a cover or a keyboard is pivotally attached to the display screen. When the angle between the display screen and the auxiliary device is a first angle that makes it likely that the device is being used normally, the device is then locked against orientation rotation. The angle between the auxiliary device and the display needs to be brought into an unnatural angle in order to allow automatic orientation rotation.
