Bug Description

Whereas I use nvidia-xsettings (saving to /etc/X11/xorg.conf as root) or the gnome display manager, I can properly order my 3 screen like I want but after reboot it is all messed up again.

On a fresh install.

I have the same issue, but also in this case:

- Set up external screen
- disconnect screen and use laptop seperately
- Connects screen, order is wrong.
