    Re: nvidia card problem

    The easiest way I know is to start up the NVIDIA X Server Settings utility.
    It will allow for setting the configuration you are after.

    Although, I found 1 little niggle when hooking up a second monitor to my laptop, even when I specify the laptops' screen as primary the task bar will still end op on the external monitor.
    But by hitting 'Apply' a second time all gets as wanted.
