spanning workspace switcher across two monitors

[Patrick <patrick@spellingbeewinnars.org>]

Hello Everyone

I have used a large number of debian derivatives and unstable but I have 
never run stable.

I am very happy with it and only have one more obstacle to overcome to 
have the perfect set up.

I am one overloaded Dad!  I have many things on the go at once. I prefer 
to use 60+ workspaces. Right now I am stuck with only 36 and I want my 
switcher to span my dual monitor set up. I have found a solution for 
gnome 3 but I need one for gnome 2.

In Gnome 3,  workspaces_only_on_primary can be unchecked but I can't 
find this setting with gconf-editor. Could someone tell me how I can do 
this?

Thanks for reading-Patrick
