Xfce -> Settings -> Display only lists one monitor "default":
Resolution 1920x1080 (or 640x480)
Refresh rate 0.0
Rotation None
Reflection None
How do I get the external monitor working?

"xrandr" utility should help you with diagnostics and setup:
$ xrandr -q
Additional info:
$ xrandr --listproviders
$ glxinfo | grep -e 'glx' -e 'OpenGL' -e 'display'
Perhaps "nvidia-settings" utility could be a fastest way to configure
dual-monitor setup and generate config file for Xorg to make settings
permanent.
I don't use dual-monitor setup myself, so I can't get you a clean
example of how to configure it.
