Are you implying that, if I run fvwm, I can run multiple virtual desktops (which the gnome pager will support) and commands like this will work: xterm -xrm '*Desk: 2' ? My whole point is, I want (need) to be able to set up multiple desktops with the xterms - not just a single or "visible" desktop. A single desktop is simply not enough. And whatever the case, in my current setup, I can't get an xterm to start on anything but my current virtual desktop. tia zen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
