I have 2 monitors connected into P50’s docking station (one VGA, one DVI). My desired layout is: notebook monitor (DP-4) on the left, right of it first monitor(DP-3.2) (rotated 90degrees), right of it second monitor (DP-3.3). Every monitor has 1920x1080 resolution.
But somehow I’m stuck with different layout (from left: rotated DP-3.2, DP-3.3, DP-4).
When I run nvidia-settings and change layout there and confirm, the monitors flicker for a while (it looks like it is trying the layout I want), but after few seconds I’m back at the wrong layout.
This is snippet of output of /var/log/Xorg.0.log when I confirm the new layout:

I really don’t grok what is the DPY-6, when my monitors are DP-4, DP-3.2 and DP-3.3.
I tried to delete /etc/X11/xorg.conf and generate new, deleting ~/.nvidia-settings-rc and ~/.nv.
I’m on Fedora 26. I’ve tried nvidia drivers installed from rpmfusion and from Nvidia driver, CUDA tools and libraries – negativo17.org
