A shot in the dark: Assuming this is XFCE4, if you right click on that "pager list and other such things at the bottom of my workspace" (which I presume is an `xfce4-panel`), you may be able to select "Panel preferences" and in there to check the "Reserve space on screen edges for the panel" which seems like a possible reason for the behavior you see. I say "may" because the menu you get with this right-click depends on exactly where you click. But in several places you should get a menu that contains a "Panel preferences" entry, or that contains a "Panel" submenu which does. Stefan
