#!/bin/sh
xrandr --output VGA-1 --mode 1680x1050 --pos 925x1080 --rotate normal
--output DP-2 --off --output DP-1 --off --output HDMI-1 --primary --mode
1920x1080 --pos 0x0 --rotate normal --output HDMI-2 --off

After a long time of trial and error, I now have nearly my settings back.

But, although the HDMI monitor is the primary in "arandr". Is my XFCE
taskbar on the small monitor (VGA)

If I could teach the XFCE to display the bar only on the primary
monitor, I would be happy. ;-)

BTW: my VGA "Card" is: VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd
Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09)

On my MoBo i have two Outputs: HDMI & VGA
