Hello David,

I am a bit confused about your actual aim: Do you want both screens
in clone mode all the time, or in clone mode during boot and span
mode within Gnome?

Frankly, I wouldn’t care about grub or early boot and then use

xrandr, which appears to work fine, within Gnome on startup (don’t
ask me how, I don’t use Gnome) to set the screens to the preferred
layout. If your preferred mode of operation is not available here,
you can try to add it using xrandr --newmode before then switching to
it. The manual page on xrandr is quite good, I think.

The intel graphics driver should support that :)

I don’t think you need the xorg.conf file.

Best regards,

Claudius
