[CentOS] Applications on different deskops at startup

Hi,

I've just converted my laptop to Centos 6 from Fedora ( gnome 3 made the latest fedora unusable ) and I have one problem.

I have several desktops with applications running on them, mainly terminals. At login all the terminals start on desktop 1. How do I get them to start on the desktop they were running on at logoff. That's how it worked on Fedora 13/14 so it must be popssible ;-) just can't find the magic.

Thanks,,

Tony

Hi Tony,

I've the same problem. That's my solution:

#!/bin/sh #set -x ProcessWindows(){ echo "Application= $Application" case "$Application" in "Lotus") wmctrl -r "$Application" -t 0;; "Firefox") wmctrl -r "$Application" -t 1;; "Office") wmctrl -r "$Application" -t 2;; "secpanel") wmctrl -r "$Application" -t 4;; "konsole") wmctrl -r "$Application" -t 5;; "File") wmctrl -r "$Application" -t 6;; esac # done }

sleep 10 Application="Lotus"; ProcessWindows Application="Firefox"; ProcessWindows Application="Office"; ProcessWindows Application="secpanel"; ProcessWindows Application="konsole"; ProcessWindows Application="File"; ProcessWindows

I've put this script in the autostart folder.

You might want to have a look at 'devilspie'. That's what I use on F14 to control startup windows. Don't know if that's in C6 by default though.
