'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the racks
Not a server was alerting, not even Compaqs.
The backups were written to tapes with care
In hopes that later the data would be there.

The machines were nestled all snug in their sleds
Whilst visions of vengeance danced in their heads;
And oncall in his three-wolf and I in my rack.
Had just settled down for some syn and some ack.

WHAT THIS IS
------------
The DELL LATITUDE E7440's docking station supports two external displays, and
the notebook's Haswell architecture supports having three displays active at
the same time. It works well, but the two external monitors are merged into one
big display:

$ xrandr
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 5280 x 1080, maximum 32767 x 32767
eDP1 connected primary 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 309mm x 174mm
