depends on what you mean by primary.  You can change the order of the
devices in some configs but that probably wont do anything and can
always change the leftOf, rightOf, clone etc. settings.

In reality the CRT always becomes the primary display when it is plugged
in.  That's hardcoded in the NVIDIA driver.

Huh?  Are you sure?  It is not this way for the Windows driver at
least, I know that much.  The default there is to have the LCD be the
primary monitor.  I have not played with dual displays on Linux,
though.

It's true: I was trying exactly this last week and found numerous posts in the nVidia forums (some from nVidia themselves) which confirmed it's a known Linux bug.
