I use a second monitor on my old Dell Inspiron, and have 3 monitors on my main desktop.
Both have nVidia hardware, so I load up the nvidia-settings package and find I can configure the monitors as I like. I generally like to extend the desktop, so that each monitor shows different stuff. That means that on my main desktop machine, my workspaces are 5760 x 1080 pixels, and using workspace-switcher, I have 4 workspaces. The OP should check what hardware runs the monitors. There may be a good solution for you.
