Well, black screens obviously aren't good, and we should clearly fix this.

If we don't get it fixed by closer to release, than maybe it's a good
data point for switching
back to Xorg for fedora 24.  But note:

1) 3 monitor setups are somewhat more rare than one and two monitor
setups, so it's important to fix, but the impact is more limited so
the problem didn't get as much exposure as it would have otherwise.
2) the bug was reported by a developer who has reproducing hardware
and intimate domain knowledge around the functions related to the
failure (you).

I'm sure we can figure this one out after a few minutes poking at it
with the hardware.  If not you, then me, or Rui, or a hand full of
other people.

Regardless of what this bug means for Fedora 24, I don't think it
should affect what we're doing for rawhide.
