Clarification on last comment, it did show black screen on eDP-1, which
changed to having image if one logged out. After logging in,  it turned
into black screen with garbled 2mm band at top of the screen. Mouse was
displayed on the screen if moved there, but as I said, the entire
machine tended to hung completely in about 5 minutes, so I could not do
that much testing.

Title:
  Cannot activate third display

Status in xserver-xorg-video-intel package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  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
  crtc 0:    1920x1080  60.05 +0+0 "eDP1"
  crtc 4:    1920x1080  60.00 +1920+0 "DP-1-2"
  crtc 5:    1920x1080  60.00 +3840+0 "DP-1-4"

  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.
