Hi List;

I have a strange firefox issue. If I start firefox on desktop one (in KDE) and later want to start other instances of firefox from say desktop 2 or desktop3, the desktop always switches back to desktop 1 (or where the first firefox window is opened) and firefox opens there. I can right click on the firefox titlebar and choose "to desktop" to move it.

Any thoughts?

Perhaps you configured a KDE Window preference that places windows with the class assigned to Firefox on that virtual desktop. I do this for certain applications. To check, you can view the "Special Window Settings" via the "Advanced" sub-menu of the window control menu (right click on the title bar to see the window control menu). In the Geometry tab there is a setting called "Desktop" that can be used to default (even to force) a (class of) window(s) to a specific virtual desktop. You can also view all established Special Window Settings in one place in the KDE Control Center in the "Desktop" category under "Window-Specific Settings".

Thanks in advance...
