If you're using Gnome, there's a "displays" option in the system
settings set of configurators, or a "screen resolution" item in one of
the system menus, in it is a "mirror displays" option, which really
means both displays show the same as each other, rather than showing a
mirror (backwards) image.

Most of these things are easy to find if people just look at the menus.

George Orwell's '1984' was supposed to be a warning against tyranny, not
a set of instructions for supposedly democratic governments.
