I am assuming you are using kde.  There is an option on of system
settings call  "Multiple monitors - System settings" which controls
where applications start.  Openlp using the main window on the PC as it
has no knowledge which is the main and which is the remote.

OpenLP opens control interface behind presentation window on secondary monitor

Status in OpenLP - Worship Presentation Software: New

Bug description:
Note: I'm running Ubuntu 10.10, using the open-source "radeon" drivers.

When I load up OpenLP, both the control interface and the presentation window are opened on the secondary monitor. The presentation window obscures the control interface, and has to be closed by pressing 'esc'.

This isn't a critical bug, but it is very frustrating -- particularly if I'm not around to help the poor person who's "doing the words" for the service! The ideal fix for this would be to nominate screens for presentation and control, rather than specifying offsets and dimensions for the presentation area; I understand, though, that given the cross-platform nature of OpenLP, this may be difficult!
