How to make Xorg remember display locations?

Dobroden.
I am running Sabayon Linux in a dual display configuration.
Everything worked out of the box, but there is one caveat: the right (physically) display, Xorg considers the left.
That is, the left monitor has "absolute 0 0" as its location, and the one physically to its right is defined by xorg as 'left of #0'.
How can I make sure that I don't have to manually change it every time?

You can use the xrandr program, write a small script that will set the position of the monitors relative to each other, and put it into autoload.
View the list of monitors:
I have it, for example, VGA-0 and LVDS-0. Accordingly, the script will look something like this:

#!/bin/bash
xrandr --output LVDS-0 --output VGA-0 --auto --left-of LVDS-0
