Radek 

which background style do you use.

1) right-click on background
2) Change Desktop Background menu item

See the Style (roll-down menu) and try to set Fill screen and repeat the display connection.

Since I would say "tilled" have this behavior.

Tome, 

 I'm using Fill screen and yes, the result on the external monitor looks like Tilled. Stop by in my office to see it :)
