Of course, thanks for waking _me_ up :)
I got confused because my first head is the LCD and the second head is
the projector, which is behind my back. Obviously I use the LCD for my
daily work and use the projector when I need to look something in the
big screen. Swithing the cables the other way gives me a working
configuration.
Now the only problem is that the projector becomes the primary screen,
i.e. login/logout needs to happen in that screen. Is there any way to
switch the heads so that the display connected to the analog connector
is the primary screen for X?
