Using xrandr to extend desktop
 
I'm trying to use xrandr to extend the desktop on my laptop to my lcd monitor. I have tried a few different ways but no matter what I do the desktop will end up on my LCD and the laptop is the extended desktop. Anyone know where I am going wrong? Here is the command I've been using:

xrandr --output LVDS --auto --output VGA --auto --left-of LVDS


Thanks for any help. Let me know if you need more information

xrandr --output LVDS --auto --output VGA --auto --right-of LVDS ??

I think these are the considerations you need to keep in mind.
