    Question Choose where a program launches with multimonitor

    Hi, I'm running 12.04 in a dual monitor (nvidia blob) setup and I'm looking for a way to choose which screen certain programs launch.
    Does anyone know a tool I can use or some place to edit so I can force them in their correct location?

    Yay, found a way to steer my programs!

    For anyone else searching for this, after a lot of digging I found the settings I was looking for in the CompizConfig Settings Manager:

    In the section "Window Management" choose the item "Place Windows",
    in here you can select the default placement mode for all applications and specify for every application its position, its viewport or what it's placement mode is.
