    I want my session to include OpenOffice.org on one workspace, Firefox on
    another, and Thunderbird on yet another. Unfortunately, gnome-session
    says "these windows do not support 'save current setup'...". I was still
    able to add them to my session through the "Startup Programs" tab in
    gnome-session, but I see no way to specify the workspace to start in.

    Is there a way, with the programs included with Fedora Core 3, to start
    these applications on a specific workspace. I assumed there was a cli
    program to set the workspace, but found none.
