Yes, xsetwacom is there. I dug up my tcl/tk and wrote a small front end to use 
xrandr and xsetwacom and yes, I can rotate the screen and rotate the 
digitizer - However the calibration is not very good (usable, however) and if 
I use xinput_calibrator it works well in lanscape modes (normal and inverted) 
but it does not work in portrait (only the two left calibration points are 
shown).

Whatever Gnome uses I can calibrate in portrait mode too.

The problem is that my school wants us more and more to use only digital 
documents. Correcting on a pdf is not really fun, but in lanscape mode it's 
even worse...
