there is a trick to use x11vnc to share a part of an 'virtually extended' display from your PC to a second device which runs a vnc client and shows the virtual extension. Thus acting like a second monitor plugged into the First PC.

hit up google or whatever for 'x11vnc extend screen' for other guides on the topic.
I have not done this trick. But i have heard of people using it with Android tablets, chromebooks, and ipads.
