i can only clone my laptop screen on it with 1024x768
Wrong resolution?
Not happy that it's cloned?
The screen resolutions GUI in Control Center should be able to handle this
Click detect displays and see to it that the Clone Displays option is not selected

I'll make a note of this topic and come back to you
In the mean time search for xrandr because that's the app that's doing it and see if you find something

I think this topic in the Mepis forum is informative
http://www.mepis.org/node/12385
You can only clone (which you don't want) or stretch
To change resolution you could try something like
xrandr --output VGA-0 --mode 1280x1024
You have to check if the external is VGA-0 (or VGA-1)
I'm looking for an example xorg.conf but I don't find it - there should be a couple in the froum
