Ultimately there IS a way to rearrange them but one needs to be very
patient. It's like a puzzle :)

All three monitors of the same resolution are connected to an NVidia
1060 with 3 different types of cable (Display, normal HDMI, old HDMI) so
I cannot replug them easily at the card, and I would have do some
rerouting at the monitor stands where cables are attached. I will
probably have to do that...

I also have a TV on an HDMI cable (sadly it always comed as #1), which,
when I last unplugged it, rearranged everything again. Not very nice.

I attached NVIDIA X Server Settings.  BTW I tried to reorder monitors in
NVIDIA X Server Settings but the settings were always overwritten on
reboot.
