Hi,
I've been trying to solve this for quite some time now and came up with nothing. Maybe you guys can help me out.
I've got a laptop with ATI graphics (ATI Catalyst 10.10 driver on Ubuntu 10.10) and I use a second monitor. Since I'm used to working on multiple workspaces, I wanted the second monitor to be just another workspace. So what I want is:
1. workspaces need to be independent, so when I'm switching workspaces on my main monitor, the second monitor stays the same
2. ability to move windows from one monitor to the other
Sounds simple enough, doesn't it?
The workaround I've been using is having one big desktop and setting "always on visible workspace" to every window on the second monitor, but it's not a perfect solution.
What I would like is the "separate x-screens" setup, but with the ability to move/send a window to the second display. That's the part I haven't been able to solve. And yes - I'm talking about windows that are already open.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've spent countless hours roaming through forums and blog posts, and I haven't found any mention of this issue, so maybe I'm just missing something obvious.
Thanks in advance!
