Before following these directions you may need to have xrandr 1.5.0, the first version to have virtual displays.

  1. Use xrandr to get a list of displays(xrandr -q) as well as of monitors(xrandr --listmonitors or --listactivemonitors). In this scenario my up2414q showed up as two panels, DP-1-8 and DP-1-9

  2. Create a virtual display with them in order to have them functionally work as one display

    xrandr --setmonitor 24inch auto DP-1-8,DP-1-9

More documentation on xrandr, beyond just manpages, can be found here: http://www.straightrunning.com/tools/xrandr.html#sect3
