Hi.The monitor of my laptop is broken, thus the screen frequently becomes white.

Which desktop manager are you using? Usually they have graphical tools to detect the monitors and switch between them, use them both with the same output or use them as an extra-large single display. It's pretty rare these days to need to fiddle with config files for this.
