Thanks for the hint; I think I'm now through;
with the line in xorg.conf about
Virtual 2944 2944
(2944 is the sum of 1024+1920) and this command:
$ xrandr --output LVDS --mode 1024x600 --rate 60.0 --primary --output VGA --mode 1920x1080 --rate 60.0 --right-of LVDS
I get theese two screens:
+------------------+-------------------------------+
| | |
| LVDS | |
| 1024x600 | |
| | |
+------------------+ VGA |
| 1920x1080 |
| |
| |
+-------------------------------+
the KDE pannel and icons are in the LVDS and I can drag and drop any X11
application between LVDS and VGA; to stop the VGA output I just use
$ xrandr --output VGA --off
Thanks
matthias
