| Did that already, no joy there also.

Can you please mention, which commands you've tried ? Following is
what I tried:

1. I plugged my VGA monitor in a running GNOME session:

- ----8<----8<----
abbe [~] monte-cristo % xrandr              
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1440 x 900, maximum 2880 x 900
VGA connected (normal left inverted right)
   1440x900       59.9 +   75.0     59.9  
   1152x864       75.0     74.8  
   1024x768       75.1     70.1     60.0  
   832x624        74.6  
   800x600        72.2     75.0     60.3     56.2  
   640x480        75.0     72.8     66.7     60.0  
   720x400        70.1  
LVDS connected 1440x900+0+0 (normal left inverted right) 367mm x 229mm
   1440x900       60.0*+
   1024x768       60.0  
   800x600        60.3  
   640x480        59.9  
TV disconnected (normal left inverted right)
- ---->8---->8----

2. Although, my new VGA monitor is detected but still no display. So I
put it in clone mode, initially.

- ---->8---->8----
abbe [~] monte-cristo % xrandr --output VGA --preferred
- ----8<----8<----

3. And after this I want my notebook LCD to start at [0,0] and VGA to
start at [1440,0], so I did following:

- ---->8---->8----
abbe [~] monte-cristo % xrandr --output VGA --right-of LVDS
- ----8<----8<----

Thats all. I'm on Gentoo GNU/Linux (hardened/amd64) using Intel 965G
graphics chipset. I've also taken a screenshot[1].
