Re: [Bug 683937] [NEW] When on a new workspace, apps are opened on the wrong workspace

 

This is not a compiz bug. Either the launcher is not aware of  
viewports and is asking the browser window to take focus instead of  
spawning a new one or the browser asks existing instances to take  
focus rather than spawning new ones.
