Setting up external monitor as a primary with Ubuntu, GNOME

Since I am currently working with an ultrabook, which has a very tiny monitor, I attached an external one. So, if we want to get it working as a primary monitore, where the menu bar and the buttons will be displayed, we just have to issue the following command:

xrandr --output VGA-0 --primary

In my case the external monitor is named VGA-0, but you might have different name for it, all you have to do is TAB after xrandr --output and it will prompt you for the different options you have.
