Hello,

I have got a script which open automatically my xterms to the good size and
position. But I would like to open them on different virtual desktop. How
can I do if it is possible ?

I tried the display option but it doesn't work :

xterm -display mycomputer:0.0 => open in the current desktop
xterm -display mycomputer:1.0 => doesn't work
xterm -display mycomputer:0.1 => doesn't work
xterm -display mycomputer:1.1 => doesn't work

Thanks.
