Thanks guys,

I managed to get it to work using nvidia-settings, except the projector
is displaying on the screen only about 1/4 of my screen. My screen is
1680 x 1050. In "X Server Display Configuration" the projecter options
are Auto, 320 x 240 and 640 x 480. I need to be able to set it higher
in order to capture all the screen of my laptop, but the choice is not
there.

Making progress, though. Further suggestions needed.
