I have hige problems with using three screen on my laptop. I use the
internal display and a VGA and a DVI monitor on the docking station.

When I place the laptop in the docking station, nothing happens. I then
do the following:

 * Open system settings and configure displays
 * Arrange the monitors in the order DVI, VGA, internal (from left to right)
 * Activate all monitors
 * Set VGA as primary
 * Click Apply

At this point, kscreen seems to break down completely. The two external
monitors remain blank, and the screen on the internal display gets
messed up (showing tiles of the content all over the place). The desktop
becomes unusable.

Killing the session and logging back in leaves KDE in an unusable state
and the session crashes on login. I have to delete everything in
~/.local/share/kscreen to make it work again.

Once I do this and log in again, I get two of the three screens working.
I then do the following:

 * Open system settings and configure displays
 * Arrange the monitors
 * Activate the third monitor
 * Click apply

Now, it applies the settings, but chagnes the geometry a bit, so the
screens are not arranged directly beside each aother after applying, but
there is a gap between 1 and 2 and 2 and 3 overlap on the edge.

I then re-arrange the screens and click apply, which fixes the gemoetry.
In another step. I set VGA as primary. Applying this takes forever, then
the KDE bar finally moves to the VGA screen and everything is done.
