You should look more closely at your xrandr output. Your devices are
VGA and LVDS, there is no -0 on the end of the names.  I bet this
would work:


xrandr --output VGA --mode 1024x768 --output LVDS --mode1024x768
 --left-of VGA

I suppose you don't have the -0 and -1 like I do because you only have
one of each type.
