Okay... seems like this would have popped up before now, but I'm not turning anything up with searches...

Some applications don't seem to show an active caret or marker next to the icon in the dock when I *know* they are running on another desktop. Clicking on the icon in the current desktop just starts another instance of the application, rather than switching to the already running one on the other desktop - or even when I'm already in the same desktop as the running instance, clicking the icon just starts a new instance.

I've had this problem before with Eclipse/PyDev and it seems that may be due to it being a Java app and not necessarily playing nicely with Unity or the Dock. Okay, fair enough - I guess.

Now I'm having problems with Terminal, though. Pretty sure that used to work in the past... which leaves me wondering what the heck changed and how to fix it?

TIA,

Monte
