Oh wait, this is with the resolution set to 1024x768, I'm not paying 
attention, heheh.

Actually according to the output it doesn't list 1280x768 as a valid 
resolution for VGA-0, but it does for LVDS.

I think your only option(s) would be either to set them up as 2 separate 
displays (not mirrored) as an extension of your main screen, or to set a 
virtual size of 1280x768 on the VGA port.

I wonder though if we can get the VGA to go into 1280x960 or some 
'close' resolution that would display correctly.

xrandr --output VGA-0 -s 1280x960

I think.
