I am currently using Ubuntu v7.04. I am planning on upgrading my machines to the new 8.04 soon but I have a slight problem that has been nagging me for quite a while now. I have 3 monitors hooked up to my machine and at any given time have multiple programs running on each moniter. The issue is, anytime one of the programs creates a new window like a popup or whatever, Ubuntu immediatly snaps to that new window and makes it the active window. This can be very frustrating when I'm working on another moniter on a completely different program and have to constantly switch back to it. Especially when there are multiple popups being generated by the first program. Is there a way to disable this feature in ubuntu?

the Machine I am using is Nvidia I believe.
