A specific Bus id
BusID "bus-id"
This specifies the bus location of the graphics card. For =
PCI/AGP cards, the bus-id string has the form PCI:bus:device:func-
tion (e.g., "PCI:1:0:0" might be appropriate for an AGP =
card). This field is usually optional in single-head configurations
when using the primary graphics card. In multi-head =
configurations, or when using a secondary graphics card in a =
single-head
configuration, this entry is mandatory. Its main =
purpose is to make an unambiguous connection between the device section =
and
the hardware it is representing. This information can =
usually be found by running the Xorg server with the -scanpci command
line option.

With the GUI all you have to do is push detect displays and place the =
new monitor in the right location, apply and restart X.
