Right click on the top window bar then select Advanced > Special Window
Settings. Click the tab Geometry then put a X in the box for Desktop
and select the one you want and there is a option for Force, Remember
etc etc etc.
That should get you on the right track. I have Seamonkey web browser
on desktop 1, Seamonkey email om desktop 2, Kppp and Konsole on desktop
3, Kopete on desktop 4, Konqueror file manager on desktop 4, Kpatience
on desktop 6, gkrellm on desktop 8. Desktop 7 is usually blank. I use
it for whatever I am in the process of at the moment. That could be
OOo, gtkam etc etc etc.
Maybe I am OCD or something. ;-)
Hope that helps.
