Version: 4:3.1.4-1
Severity: normal
If I go
kstart --desktop 4 --activate kmail --check
to have kmail check for any new mail, kmail will do its think okay, but if I
subsequently try to open a new window in some other application in a different
desktop, that new window will also appear in desktop 4. Which is what I expect to
see. The completely unrelated appplication should open its windows in the desktop
it uses.
It is 100% reproducible to me, and it affects both new applications (for example
opening KEdit by clicking on a text file on the Desktop) and widget windows of a
running application, both KDE applications and non-KDE applications (for example
if I go Ctrl+F in Firebird, the Find window will appear on desktop 4).
This bug has been in every version of KDE I've tried, and while all my systems
are Debian systems, it could be an upstream bug. It is of course just an
annoyance, but it is getting rather annoying now... :-)
In case someone wondered, I have this bound by lineakd to a special key on my
keyboard, so I do this frequently, but it is reproducible from the command line
too.
My system is mostly from unstable, but I decided to stabilize and use testing
sources a few weeks ago, and so I don't have the latest kde packages, but from the
KDE changelogs, it doesn't seem to have been any significant work on this for
3.1.5.

Well, my bug was marked invalid upstream... Basically, what I was trying
to do is a bit more complex than the docs made it out to be. But I
guess I should be closing this bug anyway, to avoid others wasting time
on it.
