I want my second monitor to be above the internal monitor by default. I solved that by adding Option "TwinViewOrientation" "Above" to the Device section of the xorg.conf file. Maybe you can google "xorg.conf twinview" and find the option to insert into xorg.conf that makes your external monitor the primary? BTW, for me there's a difference if I connect my second monitor via displayport or VGA: The monitor isn't recognized automatically if I use the VGA cable.
