What's your objective; 2 monitors different content?  You need to enable 
Xinerama among other things.

2 monitors; same content.  There's probably a FN+-- keyboard combo that cycles 
the video output thru displaying on the internal monitor, the external, both.  
Then you should be able to CTRL+ALT++/- to increase/decrease the video res to 
match the monitor.

Learn to edit XF86Config-4 manually for a variable video config.  Lastly, go 
to Linux-laptop.net and dig around.  You might find exactly what you need.

Good luck,
Paul
