This is puzzling me.  My Xorg is set up for dual-head operation with
each head having its own screen and four Xfce workspaces per screen.
It's something I've had working well for several years.

For various reasons I would like to use Gnome Terminal for an terminal
application as it can be easily configured to disable its shortcut keys
unlike Xfce Terminal.  The problem is that I want to have GT open on the
second screen--:0.1--but it opens on the first screen--:0.0--every time.
This, despite having a lower toolbar launcher on screen :0.1 and even
starting it manually from an Xfce Terminal or Xterm on screen :0.1.
Using Xfce's Application Finder (Alt-F2) gives the same result, although
it insists on opening on screen :0.1 even though it is called on screen
:0.0.

Other than some things like a password box I've never had an application
start on a screen other than the one it was launched from.  Of course,
one cannot move a window from one screen to another, so I am rather
stuck.  It's quite odd.

Has anyone encountered and resolved such an issue?

Thanks,

- Nate
