Re: Re: Chromium jumps to any workspace it likes.......

 As far as I remember, it has nothing to do with the OS, nor with the browser 
or the desktop manager but with the windows manager. In 1999 (perhaps 2000) 
when Gnome was to be loaded carefully one package at a time,  NextStep or 
Nautilus windows manager (I can't remember which, perhaps a third one) 
introduced fixed workspaces, as many as 64 possible ( it was really great to 
open 64 pictures in GIMP), and (later?) the possibility to choose a workspace 
for a given application, e.g workspace 2 for the default browser, 3 for the 
mail, etc... In 2006 (perhaps before) this was introduced in MacOs under the 
name of Spaces, also fixed. Then, in MacOS and Linux (which was first?) 
worspaces became dynamic, i.e created as needed, and then couldn't be assigned 
to a given application; it seems nevertheless that an application tries to go 
to its later place.
	Happily enough, I never tried Windows (besides me, a poster says "This is 
an air conditioned room, don't open Windows®".
