Hey,
first off, I apologize for being unable to come up with a more succinct title.
I use my first monitor for everything that requires interaction.
My second monitor is basically a TV replacement and just runs video (fullscreen flash video, media player, whatever).
If I want to utilize the virtual desktop functionality, however, both monitors switch to Virtual Desktop #2 in one swoop. What I *want* is that my second screen stays the way it is, running video, while the switching from virtual desktop 1-4 just affects my primary screen.
Hope that this makes at least some sense outside of my own head - am literally unable to form this question more precisely.
Edit: I found http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1374090 which addresses the issue, but did not get any further.
