No clue, but isn't there a "monitor preference" application, possibly called "display"? it is used when you have two or more displays to arrange them relative to eachother, to set each one's resolution, and define which one is the main display. Not runninhg F32 here, but it may be available on a panel in the "add to panel" section, or it should also appear on the menus somewhere (unless you're running Gnome, where they believe in hiding everything useful).
