Public bug reported:
When trying to extend desktop to third display, following error is
given. It can be configured as mirror of DP-1-2 but not as extended
display.
# xrandr --verbose --output eDP1 --primary --output DP-1-2 --right-of eDP1
--output DP-1-4 --right-of DP-1-2 --mode 1920x1080
screen 0: 5760x1080 1525x286 mm 95.92dpi

Steps to reproduce:
1. Take one Dell Precision M4800 laptop
2. Attach two external displays with DP
3. Install ubuntu 16.04
4. displays are not extended to third display
Expected behaviour:
In 14.04 and 15.10 display was automatically activated and extended. This is
what I hoped.
Actual behaviour:
Display stays blank and cannot be activated even with xrandr.
