Good support to multiple desktops AND multiple monitors in Linux (Ubuntu)?
- by Somebody still uses you MS-DOS
I'm starting to have A LOT of opened windows in my machine.
Sometimes within a project, I have e-mail/task management/personal e-mail/twitter, and a lot of different opened applications/terminal in my Linux environment.
Nowadays I have 4 worspaces:
Corporate management (e-mail) and corporate messenger;
Work (Documents, Requisites)
Dev (Development, All gVim windows, terminal and Firefox for development)
Personal (Personal stuff: personal e-mail, delicious, twitter and so on)
Sometimes it would be interesting to have different workspaces to projects instead of this configuration I have nowadays that are classes of work (bad name, I know, but I think you got the idea).
I'm starting to think about using two monitors: one with Corporate Management, Work and Personal. The second monitor is only the development state: each workspace here is about a project being worked on instead of groups of works like before. A workspace may be implementing different classes for example.
My question is: I just want to change to a second monitor using the mouse. I want to still be able to change workspaces in the same monitor using keyboard shortcuts. The keyboard shortcuts wouldn't change monitors, just worskpaces on the same monitor.
Does Linux (Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx) support this envisioned setup? If so, how?
