I like evolution in Workspace #2, I like to have firefox and konquorer in Workspace #3, and since I cannot get the vi/vin BEL to sound in Terminal, I use the KDE konsole. In all four workspaces. I have found that the the place where the start-up apps are put in thru "Session" which is found by clicking on System -> Preferences -> Session. I do not see any way of designation a specific *workspace*, and considering how well thought out both gnome and KDE are, my thinking is there has got to be a way. I used//am still using CTWM on three of my five servers; putting X application into Workspace N,M or K is a chore there too. But if anybody can clue me in, I would be much obliged indeed. gary -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org www.thought.org Public Service Unix http://jottings.thought.org http://transfinite.thought.org
