}
After a couple of days and 3 reinstalls (including switching from Debian to Ubuntu) I has dual monitor working (laptop and and external) but my joy was short lived. The next day I booted up I am back to my external monitor not working. I don't think I changed anything. The last thing I did was get grub to save my last option (changing /etc/default/grub) but am tested after that.
When I go to the nvida control panel 'X Server Display Configuration' and go to the second display I get 'PRIME Displays cannot be controlled by nvidia-settings and must be configured by an external RandR capable tool. The display is shown in the layout window for information purposes only'.
Did a bit of googling but could not find anything that seemed relevant for 18.10.
My drivers are:
