Yoga Pal
Once I started work, I bought myself a Lenovo Yoga 3 14" laptop, because I needed a thin and light for trains etc. Unfortunately this came with windows, which within 10 minutes was running Ubuntu Gnome! Ubuntu greatly increased the performance, but I had to sacrifice all the screen, touchpad and keyboard customisation when changing 'modes'.
I found this thread on Ask Ubuntu with someone else trying to find a solution to this, to find a nice way of rotating the screen when in tablet mode. On the thread was a really nice simple script that rotated the screen perfectly, and did the touchscreen too. This script worked great, doing exactly what it said it did, nicely and quickly, however it wasn't a great solution for me. Yes it worked, but it didn't allow me to change anything else, like the touchpad.
So I started working on my own CLI, based off the above script, to allow me to tweak everything, so the laptop can be used as it was intended.
